? “Flexibility isn’t just a perk—it’s becoming the foundation of resilient manufacturing.” Last week at the Generis American Manufacturing Summit, I had the pleasure of co-hosting a session with Bryan Heraty from Insight, diving deep into what flexibility actually means on the frontline. We spoke about: ?? Why manufacturers can no longer afford rigid, one-size-fits-all workforce models ?? How flexibility isn’t just about shifts—it’s about cross-training, redeployment, and retention ?? Real-life examples of manufacturers turning operational chaos into structured agility ?? And how the right tech can help you put the right worker for the right job at the right time, every time Huge thanks to everyone who stayed back after the session to chat and share what flexibility looks like at your plants—it’s clear this is a challenge we’re all trying to solve together. Big shoutout to Bryan for bringing the operations POV and painting the micro so well. If you didn’t get a chance to connect with our team at the Summit, drop us a note—we’re always up for a conversation on how you’re approaching workforce flexibility.

Last week, we co-presented a session at the WiM Winter Leadership Conference. Our founder Rahil Siddiqui shared the stage with Mary Schlusser from Vitro Architectural Glass, leading a conversation on how skills-based flexibility can transform frontline workforce management. The session sparked fantastic discussions with HR leaders and manufacturing pros, and the feedback was amazing. It’s clear that the industry is ready for change, and we’re thrilled to be a part of that journey. Big thanks to Women in Manufacturing for hosting us and to everyone who joined our session. This is just the beginning!

Last week, the Wilya team was at the Plug and Play Innovation zone at Manifest: The Future of Supply Chain & Logistics, where we connected with some of the brightest minds in supply chain innovation. It was inspiring to see how the industry is evolving and how flexibility and agility are becoming non-negotiable. It was incredible to hear about labor challenges still prevalent in the supply chain and share how a skills-based approach is making all the difference. A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by! We left feeling inspired and energized, and we’re already looking forward to next year’s event. #Manifest2025 #ManifestVegas
