Growing as an organization also means hiring new players and setting the bases for a structure.
Christine Zapata, Vice President of Human Resources & Talent Development for Starplast USA, talks about how she’s building for growth within her organization from an HR standpoint in terms of management structure, hiring, and recognition. As Starplast seeks to grow, they bring in corporate-level managers, directors, and vice presidents to create a vision and structure that new employees can grab onto. She explains why this will relieve leadership from administrative tasks and relegate new positions with a focus on production, purchasing, and material management in the manufacturing environment. She also explains how she uses a multi-layered behavioral-based interviewing process to find new hires and successfully bring the best new players. Christine also speaks about why recognizing good performance and small wins can empower employees to continue this behavior and inspire their peers.
