Managers of all trades
18 December 2009
Most of the companies-manufacturers have a problem of
disconnection between production personnel and managers because of lack of
common team feeling. OJSC "HLEBPROM" decided to solve the problem not a usual
way. For one day managers and chief specialists of OJSC "HLEBPROM" turned into
production workers. This unusual action occurred on 10th - 11th November on
production floor in Chelyabinsk. The labour holiday took place with a motto
Manager of all trades.
During this arrangement the confectioners could share their
experience in making perfect cakes with managers. And employees experienced
hard work in production.
As one of the experiment's participants says, everything
looks much easier from the outside. But when you start doing seemingly easy
operations it will be hard enough. Such operations as estimation necessary
amount of powder or putting products in forms proved to be difficult to
complete. It was even hard to imagine standing on feet all shift. Now I value
labour of our confectioners much better, also the products we produce.
Positive experience of this arrangement will be basis for conducting
such labour exchange days regularly.
