Official launch is December 3rd @ 8:00 a.m. CT.

Veteran Executive | Fractional COO | Driving Scalable Growth for Manufacturing & Industrial Companies Through Systems, Automation & Servant Leadership

THE Manufacturing Forge Alliance

We’re committed to partnering with leaders who are rebuilding American manufacturing, strengthening the great companies here now and helping new ones scale with precision. If you're driving innovation, reshoring, and operational excellence, let’s collaborate.

The Manufacturing Forge Alliance Chapter of Success Champion Networking (SCN) kicks off December 3rd. 8:00 AM CST. 

Here's what we're building:  A Manufacturing Ecosystem where manufacturers don't get one specialist. They get a trusted team. Packaging automation. Finance systems. Workforce development. Process improvement. Technology strategy. All working together. Zero competition. Pure collaboration.

When a manufacturer walks into our ecosystem, they have access to everything they need to run leaner, automate smarter, and compete with offshore competition. That's the vision.

American manufacturers are fighting an uphill battle. Rising costs. Labor shortages. Fragmented specialist networks. Processes that bleed money.
But they can compete when they have the right partners helping them execute. That's what this chapter is about.

I'm honored to serve as VP alongside President Bravis Brown, MBA and our leadership team: Lisa A Thomas, PMP, ACP, Benjamin Karrasch, and Tolani Lawson, CPA. We're building something special here.
—————————————————————
🗣️ Manufacturing leaders looking to scale? You need to know about this.
🗣️ Service providers who serve manufacturers with non-competing services? We're looking for founding members.  

Visit our launch on Dec 3rd! Link in the comments.
December 3rd. Wednesdays 8-9 AM CT. Zoom. LETS GO!!
—————————————————————
P.S. I help #procurement and #supplychain pros become heroes saving their companies money through #packaging #automation #machinery and materials solutions. #WinTheDay

The Manufacturing Forge Alliance - SCN Chapter:

We will need a business focused on providing repairs and maintenance to manufacturing equipment, see list below.  Please make introductions if you know anyone in the spaces below.

Extrusion Press Service & Repair Companies
Furnace, Heat-Treat & Oven Specialists

Can you relate to this?  I try to speak things into fruition, meaning I talk as if they are happening or that I am doing/taking action.  This creates a deeper obligation for me and drives commitment.  Obviously, there are times where I'm trying to drive things where I don't have ultimate control, when I miss goals due to that it is emotionally difficult for me.

Does anyone have some recommendations or other ways to look at this?  Again, looking to get it right, not be right.  I've run into enough emotional setbacks that I am seeking external perspective.

That video I've been promising.

Strategy isn’t a poster, it’s how you run the business.
When your strategy, mission, vision, and values are clear and lived out day-to-day, they stop being words on a wall and start becoming the framework for how everyone makes decisions, communicates, and wins together.

The shift happens when every resource you’ve built, job descriptions, scorecards, onboarding plans, even bonus structures, connects back to why the business exists and how it grows.

A job description isn’t just a list of tasks anymore. It’s a direct link between what someone does each day and how the company succeeds.
That connection builds purpose, clarity, and ownership.

When that alignment is in place, everything changes:

Onboarding makes sense, people see how their role fits from day one.

HR stops chasing compliance and starts driving performance.

Reviews, bonuses, and growth conversations have context.

Everyone knows how their work supports the strategy and the team.

To make it stick, build these five tools:

A one-page strategy map that tells the story of your direction.

Operating principles that guide decisions under pressure.

Role scorecards that tie accountability to results.

A cadence map showing how the business runs week to week.

Onboarding and development paths that track back to strategy.

👇 In the video, I break down how to move your mission, vision, values, and strategy out of PowerPoint and into everyday operations so alignment isn’t a slogan, it’s a system that drives performance.

The Leadership Behind the Process - 30 Days of Discipline, Trust, and Systems That Work

Day 17: When the System Runs Itself (That’s the Win)

One of the most rewarding moments in leadership is when you realize you’re no longer the bottleneck.

I remember walking into a facility after being away for a week.
The production meetings started on time. The schedule updates were done. The metrics were current. No one had waited on me to move things forward.

That’s when you know the system works; when it’s not dependent on any single person.

It’s tempting for leaders to think being “needed” is a sign of value.
It’s not. It’s a sign the system isn’t finished. 

When people have clear expectations, documented processes, and decision-making authority, they don’t wait, they act.

Freedom as a leader comes when the business runs on systems, not on you.

Where do you still feel like the bottleneck in your business?

Day 19: Consistency Builds Confidence

Every great company looks boring from the outside, that’s a compliment.

Consistency is what builds confidence.
When teams know how decisions are made and what happens next, they move faster.

I once helped an organization that kept reinventing the priority every quarter, new product focus, new market, new messaging.
It was chaos disguised as urgency to market.
Once we committed to one go to market strategy, everything settled.

Productivity went up. Meetings got shorter.
Confidence returned.

People don’t need new every quarter, they need dependable.

Consistency doesn’t limit speed to market; it supports it.

How consistent is your business rhythm from week to week, quarter to quarter?

Day 20: The Next Generation of Leadership

The best sign of a strong culture isn’t the leader’s performance; it’s the next leader’s success.

I’ve seen too many organizations stall when a key person leaves because their systems lived in their head, not in the company.
That’s not leadership. That’s dependency.

Great leaders build people who outgrow them.
They create structure that doesn’t crumble when they move on.

The real legacy of leadership isn’t the title you held.
It’s the team that keeps winning long after you’re gone.

If your organization couldn’t thrive without you, it’s time to build one that can.

Who’s the next leader you’re preparing to hand the keys to?

Day 16: Building Leaders Who Own the Process

Early in my career, I thought leadership meant being the one who or could fix everything.

If a process broke down, I jumped in.
If a deadline slipped, I stayed late.

It worked, until I realized that by solving every problem, I was also owning every problem.

The system couldn’t scale because I hadn’t built people who could carry it.

That shifted my focus.

Instead of just teaching the process, I started teaching the thinking behind it; why we do it this way, how to spot drift, and when to make adjustments.

I watched team members start anticipating issues before they became problems.

They took ownership, not because they were told to, but because they understood the “why.”

Leadership that lasts isn’t about control.
It’s about creating clarity and ownership that outlives you.

If your systems still depend on you to run right, it’s time to start building the people who can.

Day 18: Clarity Creates Calm

Ever notice how chaos spreads faster than clarity?

When people don’t know what’s expected, they fill the gaps with assumptions.
That’s how confusion grows and why consistency starts with communication.

In one facility, production, maintenance, and QC each had their own version of “done.”
Schedules clashed. Priorities shifted mid-shift. Tempers flared.

We fixed it by doing something simple: aligning definitions.
We created shared language for what “ready,” “complete,” and “approved” meant across all departments.

Suddenly, what used to take debate took seconds.

Clarity doesn’t slow you down, it stabilizes everything around you.

When people know the plan, they stop reacting and start performing.

Where in your operation could more clarity replace more meetings?
