IPMA 2001 Conference In-plants In A Changing World

Though the USAA situation shows that companies can always find reasons to close an in-plant if they really want to, many in-plants have been able to survive by keeping upper management informed of the benefits and savings their in-plants provide. At a session on change management, Jane Bloodworth, of the World Bank, advised in-plants to learn how upper management thinks and how it gets its information. Constantly inform management of your shop's successes and also of issues and concerns.
