Topic: Maximizing Human Potential in the Manufacturing Sector

The manufacturing industry faces several challenges of a growing employment gap, increasing pressure to reduce negative environmental impact, and a disengaged workforce. A framework based on humanist commitments will be shared that offers solutions to these “opportunities” to use manufacturing as a force for good.
