"sometimes changes are made without consulting the workers that know how best to improve the system"

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Top down management has caused many of the issues that have caused delays. Listen to the workers and not just the Supervisors. Try to encourage a problem solving approach instead of a cover my (you know what) approach to solving problems. Don't worry who is to blame and just solve the problem. A worker who makes a mistake will likely not make that one again if he is supported by management and not hunted down for dismissal. if he or she is always in jeopardy they will likely try to point blame instead of solve the problem"
