narrative20161023 Lee, Ferenc and Drewer were invited to business night program, and they needed to talk something if a production manager always be looking for higher productivity or not as a production manager’s view. Lee thought that productivity was one of the factors to watch, but it was not the be-all-and-end-all of a production manager’s life. Furthermore, with so many people involved in the process, productivity measures were bound to suffer. So, he believed the best measure standard was: what was going to keep you in business and added value to your company. Ferenc was a big fan of automation, he is firmly under the belief that productivity made product in the cheapest and most efficient way. As a result, employment regulations in Europe would have to change to make it easier to hire and fire workers. In Drewer’s opinion, productivity asked companies replace workers with obedient marvels. As a consequence, companies lost they customer base because people were out of a job and no money to spend. Not only that, since people don’t concentrate on marketing the product, an activity where productivity measures were largely irrelevant.
