Welcome to Factory of the Future, E71, Unionization Crossroads: Ethical Leadership in Manufacturing

Join us as we discuss: 

- Core tension between operational efficiency and protecting workers’ safety and rights 

- Two extreme approaches: actively obstructing unionization and fully embracing it

- The “Mediated Ethical Bridge” framework with prioritization on transparency, open dialogue, and proactive workplace improvements 

- The smarter long-term play: preparing for unionization rather than fighting it  

And so much more.
