Presented at the Partnerships in Progress Michigan Labor and Management Association Conference, 2014, East Lansing, Michigan http://mlma.org/ 7 Secrets to Union-Management Success with Teams Once what I want differs from what you want, we are in conflict. Conflict will naturally increase when shifting from a supervisor-to-employee model to a team model. This presentation describes a whole system, top to bottom and side to side process to implement teams in a union environment. The "from me to we" shift is continuous process that requires a different type of renewal annually. With commitment to this approach, everyone from top management and union officials down to frontline supervisors and employees can mutually benefit.

- TOLEDO, OHIO --The American car industry continues to struggle, but here in Toledo we have one of the most productive plants in North America.The 1,800 workers inside Powertrain can't control the market. They can control how well they make their product.The four-speed transmission line was honored today in a ceremony by the Harbour Report. The transmission line's ranked the most productive in North America by Ron Harbour. Nobody churns out a transmission faster than Toledo.It's the second straight year and eighth time in ten years Powertrain took the honor. Right now it's a four-speed plant but it's shifting to a six-speed plant. UAW Local 14 says the product may change, the results will not.Ron Harbour says Powertrain's plant is competitive with any he has seen around the world. He did say there are economic challenges beyond their control

- Presenter speaks:Secret #7 is to never check the box. Sustaining good union/management relationships is something that is never done. You have to work on it all of the time.

- What creates fragility?What helps you go beyond resilience, which is NOT enough in a turbulent world? It is not enough to prevent isolation either3. AntsEmerging from wasp-like ancestors over 130 million years ago, ants have become the most successful terrestrial macro-scale species this planet has ever seen. Often considered a superorganism on account of their hive-mind composition, their evolutionary success has been attributed to their highly coordinated social organization, an ability to modify habitats, exploit resources, and defend themselves. Nearly 12,500 species have been identified, but it's thought that as many as 22,000 species may actually exist. Ants have also colonized virtually every landmass on Earth, and may comprise anywhere from 15 to 25% of the total terrestrial animal biomass. Put another way, there are more ants on this planet by weight than all humans combined.
