AME | June 26, 2020

 

North American industry and the economy are facing unprecedented challenges brought on by the global pandemic. Organizations are grappling with employee engagement, supply chain disruptions, retraining employees, implementing new safety procedures and other complex, pandemic-related issues.

Industries and organizations that work quickly to implement lean methods, empower employees and adopt a continuous improvement mindset will have the best chance to survive and even thrive during and after the pandemic.

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, AME needs your support in order to continue the important work we do for industries.
