PsyMax Express Manufacturing Solutions

March 3, 2010 — While the declines in manufacturing activity have slowed, raising the likelihood that the sector could see growth in the second half of the year, separate reports showed the labor market remains weak, meaning that there are many more job applicants than there are jobs, and that manufacturers will do their best to develop their talent from within.

PsyMax understands the unique challenges of the manufacturing industry

  • Emphasis on “Know-how”:   Manufacturing success is a function of productivity. And future productivity gains come from knowledge workers. R&D, marketing, sales, financial, management and other manufacturing staff are key to continued success through innovation, new products and new markets
  • Fostering Innovation: Managing change and nurturing a climate for innovation requires leadership throughout the organization, and it is important to get the right people on the team and to get them playing the right positions.

PsyMax’s research on the manufacturing industry

Our research has determined specific work style behaviors that differentiate the more successful from the less successful production workers and managers in a manufacturing setting.  Of course, there are many different kinds of settings, but in some organizations, we have found that successful manufacturing people: 

  • Remain persistent in the face of obstacles
  • Analyze information and use logic to address work-related problems
  • Display a team-oriented, collaborative work style
  • Are careful about detail and thorough in complex work assignments
