Industry
Recent decades has shown a complete change in the industrial manufacturing landscape, both globally and locally. The sector is now characterized by large mergers and acquisitions, intense competition, increasing demands on price and quality, either in products, services or systems, and these trends will continue.
Suppliers have evolved from purely technical manufacturers into complete system developers. They have had to adapt to a global market with fewer but bigger players, especially in the automotive, aerospace and electronics fields.
Speed and flexibility, together with demands on profitability, have become key issues for industrial manufacturing companies all over the world. International as well as local matrix organizations, lean production, simultaneous engineering and project management are all key trends.
Total unit management has become matrix management consequently executive profiles have changed. Whatever expertise is needed, strong personal leadership is also essential.
