ABOUT THIS EPISODE
On this episode of Next-Gen Metal Fab, The Fabricator Senior Editor Tim Heston and business advisor Mark Ernst, a longtime member of the Fabricators and Manufacturers Association (FMA) and its Management Advisory Council, examine one of the biggest challenges facing growing metal fabrication shops: developing the people and management structure needed to keep up with the business.
They discuss management training, evolving org charts, automation, career paths, and performance expectations as shops grow and change.
For more on this subject, check out Mark’s FMA webinar, Managing Difficult People, on Nov. 4, focused on handling behavioral and performance issues before they damage morale and workplace culture.
