Highlights
Wayne Mackey is an internationally acknowledged expert in metrics, achieving rapid organizational change, partnering and applying the voice of the customer to product development. He became involved with Management Roundtable back when he was an engineering manager at a large aerospace corporation; remarkably, he still thinks like a practitioner – realistic, down to earth, and hands-on. He understands corporate objectives and knows how to achieve buy-in, consensus and continuous improvement.
He describes his approach as follows: “My work is the absolute antithesis of ‘cookie cutter.’ I’m not interested in replicating a formula across all the companies I work with. Every customer is different and every job is different. But I don’t look at just solving today’s problem and walking away — it’s a partnership. To be successful in the long run, companies have to incorporate what they learn from us into the fabric of how they operate.”
