It is always a pleasure to support manufacturers in Atlantic Canada through the challenges they are facing but also to celebrate successes. We are becoming accustomed to ‘change’ requiring the ability to re-adjust; the opportunities of peer networking are powerful as well as a tool for professional development:

  • No Need to Re-Invent the Wheel!
  • Many minds are better than one.
  • There’s Power in Numbers.
  • Gain a fresh perspective and greater awareness.
  • Make new Connections.

EMC continues to evolve to better represent the needs of the day – through technology, strategic partnerships and learning development. If you are a member, you are aware of the many resources and I encourage everyone in your organization to use them to their fullest potential (yes, all of a member company’s employees are considered members). Here’s a quick review:

Member Needs Help – EMC Canada
Learning Centre – EMC Canada – If you are a member, ask about discounts on our training.
Manufacturing Masters – EMC Canada
Programs – EMC Canada
Services – EMC Canada

If you are not a member, we would encourage you to explore what value EMC could provide to your organization. As with everything we do, members drive activity; always feel free to reach out with thoughts suggestions and ideas…. we couldn’t do it without you!

Psychological safety for women in manufacturing isn’t just a women’s issue, it’s a signal of whether your workplace is truly safe, inclusive, and high performing. When women feel heard, respected, and supported, the whole team benefits. This series explores how gendered experiences shape safety and trust at work and how employers can shift culture, not just policy.
