The Language Gap: Manufacturing's Hidden Productivity Killer

Many manufacturers look at their productivity limitations as a problem to be solved by adding more skilled labor – a tall order in an industry that’s dealt with longstanding shortages of qualified workers. But, according to Jeremy Jacobs, there’s another angle to this that’s often being ignored: Nobody's talking about the 30%+ of frontline workers who can't fully understand the instructions in front of them.

Jeremy is CEO of UnDesked, the multilingual manufacturing operations platform working with some of the world's largest manufacturers to close the language gap and end paper on the frontline. A lifelong entrepreneur with multiple patents and a NASDAQ exit, his work has been featured in Forbes, Bloomberg, and Business Insider. Jeremy is here today to talk to us about what he believes is manufacturing’s hidden productivity killer – the language gap.
