#USAMfgHour ReCap ~ All Things Social

July 1, 2022 By Kirsten Austin

Social media uses Internet Applications that allow people (and bots) to communicate, share ideas and content. You’re probably familiar with Facebook®, Twitter®, LinkedIn®, Instagram® and TikTok®. These platforms have changed the way we “talk” to one another, provide information and stay connected. There are good and bad things about this instant and sometimes anonymous technology. With privacy on the line and possible dangers, are there positives to putting your business or personal views out there?

Great Information Systems Managers

June 21, 2022 By Kirsten Austin

A great Information Systems Manager, also known as an Information Technology (IT) manager, is really invaluable to your company. I have worked in the software business for close to 30 years and sometimes IS Managers can be the largest obstacle for modernization and progress.

However, I am impressed by how many AMAZING IS Managers are in our working force today. Let me share the qualities they possess.

What Makes a Good Team Work?

March 9, 2021 By Kirsten Austin

TeamworkIn December of 2019, while “chatting” on Twitter, an unlikely source, Chris Astley-Stone of Burley Appliances Ltd., a UK manufacturer of the world’s most efficient & cleanest wood-burning stoves, gave us an idea. It was an idea that we should host a USA Manufacturing Chat, one similar to their UK Manufacturing Chat.

So let’s just say the obvious! 2020 reminds me of that game you play in the carnival called Whac-A-Mole. You know the one were moles pop up out of nowhere and if you make contact with them you win a point. Nationally and Globally many of our partners, clients and friends where in the same boat.
