    Well said Ken. As a leader this is where we ensure the team is working by working with the team. Might mean a few extra hours here and there but being involved at the line level during times like this shows your team your commitment and expectations apply to you as well as everyone else

    to ensure smooth operations during peak periods, proactive planning and effective communication are key. Schedule routine maintenance during off-peak hours to avoid disruptions. Implement a predictive maintenance strategy to identify and address potential issues before they escalate. Equip staff with the necessary training to handle high-demand situations efficiently. Additionally, keep backup systems and emergency protocols in place to quickly resolve unexpected challenges.

    Ter muito clara quais as prioridades de atendimento, principalmente nos horários de pico, faz com que sejamos assertivos nas ações e planos que precisam ser executados nestes momentos. Uma boa forma de ter isso, é desenhar muito bem junto a toda equipe e fornecedores envolvidos.
