Careers

At the 2024 edition of the North American Food Manufacturing Summit series we sat down with Cynthia Lapoint, a plant manager with Kerry, to talk about how manufacturing professionals address the issue of work-life balance in the ‘New Normal of Work.’ While many industries came through the pandemic embracing remote work and hybrid work models, manufacturers still need people on the shop floor doing important, hands-on tasks. There are opportunities for some people to have hybrid roles, but how does that impact culture? How do future leaders navigate the options of working from home versus coming into the factory? How should companies think about what their Top Talent wants and needs, and how does thinking about the individual help build long-term positive outcomes for the organization? For all that and more, give this episode a listen!
