Coming from a craftsman background moving into a manufacturing role can be really difficult as trying to maintain a business mindset while not taking away the creativity you once had can be hard. On top of the current technological advances in the industry, it can all feel like a lot. Today on the podcast we talk in depth about this perspective and issue, going through the ways as a business owner you can manage the shift into manufacturing, and keep a steady head with all the big advances in technology.  We have Leeroy Reading from Reading Furniture & Joinery on to talk to us about his mindset around it and how he stays cool running the fantastic business he's built. And we also have Nigel Newman to talk about learning factory flow as a craftsman and how it can be an advantage to see the business from your perspective. Today's episode is an incredibly dense and thorough dive into the topic of craftsmanship transitioning into manufacturing roles, so grab some coffee and get ready for some fresh insight!

Download the free community edition Maxcut Software to try it out and see what MaxCut can do. https://www.MaxCutSoftware.com  A saying I hear a lot in this industry is "better the devil you know than the devil you don't know", but is this really true? Running a business in the joinery industry is often like riding a roller coaster you don't know how to get off of, but what I find more often is that most business owners are addicted to being on this roller coaster mainly because they don't know how to get off the ups and downs..  Stepping into new territory that could potentially make things easier often seems scarier than facing the struggle you're already handling, but taking that plunge could get you out of the daily grind you face. On today's podcast I talk about this addiction to the roller coaster and what stepping off of it might actually do for you.
