Leggett & Platt

In 1883, we invented the steel coil bedspring, helping people get a good night's sleep. Our first bedspring factory opened in Carthage, Missouri, seven years later, and we've been on a mission to enhance lives ever since. Today, we're proud to be a global diversified manufacturer, turning ordinary materials into extraordinary products. We design and manufacture innovative products and components that can be found all around you – in homes, offices, automobiles, and more. With approximately 2.7 billion people worldwide working within the manufacturing sector, we recognize how important manufacturing is to our global economy, and we’re grateful to be a part of it. We're also proud of our teams around the world who work to make our products and processes more efficient, sustainable, and safe every day!

In May, we spotlighted intercultural dialogue as part of our observance of World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development. This month, as we talk about our global mindset, we think it's important to revisit the importance of connection across cultures. At L&P, we do great work together by encouraging connection and the open exchange of perspectives and ideas between teams around the world. It’s how we build understanding, unite above our differences, and stay innovative. Judith Kuhn, HR Director – Specialized Products Europe & Global HR Lead – Hydraulics, shared a quick tip and resource for collaborating across cultures more effectively. She said we can start by being aware of cultural differences – how we communicate, manage time, make decisions, and lead differently – and pointed us to an introduction of Erin Meyer’s eight-scale Culture Map to learn more. For more information on collaborating across cultures, check out Erin Meyer’s book called The Culture Map.
