SUPPLY CHAIN
young minds ”. It will continue SigmaPoint ’ s transformation into an industry leader in lean enterprise , further improving its rapid prototyping capabilities and offering supply chain , manufacturing and lean enterprise workshops , led by Dubreuil and Slaughter .
Slaughter adds : “ We ’ re making sure we ’ re part of the education and knowledge base here in Canada and North America , and that allows us to disrupt the rest of the world .”
For the supply chain , Slaughter looks for those who can problemsolve , that are highly passionate to succeed , and are ready to eschew traditional processes in favor of all things lean .
“ A conservative mind is not really what I look for in the DNA of this modern lean supply chain ,” she explains . “ People in this supply chain need to be , to some degree , adrenaline enthusiasts . We don ’ t conduct supply chain in a traditional way , so we need to be able to think quickly while multitasking , creating an exceptional experience for our customers , and ensuring we ’ re covering everything . We ’ re changing and evolving every day ; DNA changes in management cascade downwards . We also have to maintain strong relationships with operations : without that , we don ’ t and can ’ t become what we ’ re on our journey to become , which is an amalgamated presence between manufacturing and supply chain .”
Slaughter concludes : “ If it wasn ’ t for the strength and brilliance of our people , we ’ d never be what we are today . The atmosphere here is one where we welcome ideas and you speak your mind , and this is thanks in part to our leader Dan Bergeron , who is our motivation and our teacher . I think it ’ s important to know we ’ re a really big family here . That gets us through each day .”
