In the final installment of our three-part series with manufacturing leader Sivaram Jambunathan, we dive into what may be the most pivotal element of successful workflow learning: measurement.
Hosted by Con Gottfredson, this episode unpacks how Siv and his team transformed their manufacturing organization by building a clear, practical, and deeply disciplined measurement strategy—one that protected organizational will, aligned stakeholders, and proved real value every step of the way.
Siv shares how his team forecasted impact before implementing a single change, identified the highest-value opportunities, and used the PDCA cycle to stay adaptive when real-world conditions shifted. From reducing time to proficiency, to calculating cost-to-competence, to building cultural habits of learning application and knowledge-sharing, Siv offers an honest, insightful look at what it takes to measure workflow learning in a way that actually matters.
If you're responsible for learning, performance, or transformation in any industry, especially one where precision and speed are non-negotiable, this conversation is a must-listen.
Tune in to hear how small, systematic steps can lift an entire organization, one plant at a time.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
