Tell me about a time you successfully implemented an organization design change.

"With a background in HR, my organization design work has most often centered around labor efficiencies with organizations. I have a lot of experience evaluating work processes and gauging the appropriate labor needs that are necessary. Last year, I worked with a small plastics manufacturer that wasn't using their automation capabilities to their highest level. They were essentially paying many people to do what some of their machinery could actually do. While it did involve some difficult conversations and some difficult employment decisions, the organization was able to save a lot of labor costs on simple modifications to their processes."

"As you can see from my resume, I have vast experience in the transportation and warehousing industries. In my work here, organization redesign has always been a focus to increase efficiencies and profitability. Last year, I helped a large trucking firm implement the UPS logistics philosophy in their routing, saving a lot of money on fuel, maintenance costs, and labor. If hired here, I think my corporate design experience in these areas would translate well to industries like manufacturing and healthcare."
