During this session Steve will explain the journey he undertook when taking on the role of Director of Asset Reliability for Smithfield Foods, the world’s largest pork producer with over 40,000 employees in the United States. In short the situation he inherited was chaotic. What he found were many IOCs that were coming together, with a lack of clear processes and workflows that made maintenance work haphazard at best, and chaotic at worst. In this practical session Steve will explain how the team built a strategic plan, built and implemented clear processes to align leadership, plant teams with external resources and created work aids, documents, and metrics to ensure they achieved successful outcomes.

In this session learn how Steve:

• Created and aligned on a clear mission
• Built out a future world better than the previous
• Introduced gamification into the execution
