The team at AGAP was formed through the integration of the cultures of Bertone and FCA.
One of the key areas of focus during the start-up phase was to ensure that the employees who had been on furlough for a significant period were given adequate training and motivation.
The challenge was to create a new culture oriented toward producing premium products of the highest standard by promoting a sense of belonging, responsibility and sharing among employees.
Rather than the traditional top-down approach, the Plant adopted a lean organizational model centered on production units composed of a Team Leader and six line operators. Through direct and effective communication, the multi-disciplinary role of Team Leader ensures alignment with the highest production and quality standards.
Priority was given to Selection and Training and Communication and Engagement.
