Steel Toes and Stilettos - A True Story of Women Manufacturing Leaders and Lean Transformation Courageous Love with Amber Fields
-
- Spirituality
Meet Kathy Miller, a female manufacturing executive responsible for a business’s profitability and all the lives that the company supports, and Shannon Karels, a high-potential female member of the leadership team. They professionally joined forces when Kathy hired Shannon to be a part of her divisional leadership team—responsible for a $75m operation with hundreds of team members at four locations in two countries.
“This book is about meaningful culture change, individual and organizational learning, leadership humanity, and resilience, and organizational excellence. It documents a long, challenging, but totally inspirational account of multiple plants’ transformations, but also provides a unique window into a boss-subordinate relationship that is textured, real, and uplifting. Women in leadership (way beyond manufacturing) will be interested in this account of gifted, yet humble leadership. I am challenged to convey how much I loved the content and style of this book.”
