The Motor Vehicle Manufacturers Americas L&D team faced significant challenges in the wake of a cyberattack and the global pandemic, which severely disrupted organizational knowledge. This situation led to noticeable variations in the knowledge and skills of Team Leaders, Supervisors, and EPU Managers across different locations, shifts, and teams. The addition of new plants, new programs, and increased turnover underscored the need for a standardized training program to set expectations and provide just-in-time learning opportunities for new leadership positions. This standardization was crucial for the growth and long-term success of the Motor Vehicle Manufacturers’ business unit.
