Synopsis

99% of manufacturers in Illinois are small or midsize. In some ways, the idea of readying yourself for global competitiveness may seem unrealistic or even fanciful. At the Illinois Manufacturing Excellence Center (IMEC), we take a different view. We believe that you can compete globally, and that Made in Illinois is a playbook to help you win.

Here’s the thing: the global manufacturing stage is being reset and opportunities abound. Are you ready to run your play? Will you build a culture that sets you apart? How will you cultivate a high performance team? What strategies can you put into play with current resources and minimal investment?

Through our relationships with manufacturers across the state of Illinois, we’ve put to-gether the best-kept secrets on the hot button issues in manufacturing, including:

• Widening your hiring pool
• Integrating new technology on your shop floor
• Developing a great sales team
• Implementing a solid go-to-market strategy
• The role of organizational success as a pathway for growth
• Doable, measurable strategies to accelerate global competitiveness
• And more!
