As the president of Rashmi Group, I believe in fostering a culture of ownership and accountability. To reduce waste in inventory, I start by encouraging team members to analyze data and identify inefficiencies. I empower them with the right tools, training, and resources to optimize processes. Open communication channels are key, so I hold regular meetings to discuss challenges and share best practices. Recognizing and rewarding innovation and improvements will motivate the team to take proactive steps, making them feel valued and invested in the company’s success.

Para capacitar a equipe a reduzir o desperdício no estoque, é essencial fornecer treinamento sobre boas práticas de gestão, implementar sistemas de monitoramento eficientes e incentivar a comunicação constante sobre as necessidades de reposição. Além disso, promover uma cultura de responsabilidade e recompensa pela redução de desperdício pode gerar um engajamento mais ativo.

Lo principal es tener una comunicación positiva clara con tu equipo. De nada sirven las amenazas o los castigos. Esta comunicación positiva tiene que tener como objetivo poder desarrollar diferentes estrategias. Personalmente, dada mi experiencia en el mundo de las ventas, una estrategia fundamental sería crear un plan de Motivación e incentivos. Con unos objetivos claros remunerados puedes desarrollar un plan que por ejemplo, ofrezca incentivos para aquellos que implementen cambios efectivos que reduzcan el desperdicio. Eso es involucrar al equipo de manera efectiva.

I always found it a great incentive to give figures in pounds,shillings and pence.Also a shift league table showing how each dept was doing and introducing a competetive element

To reduce waste, train your team to monitor inventory closely and use tools to track stock levels. Encourage them to order only what’s needed and use older stock first. Teach them to spot slow-moving items and adjust orders accordingly. Create a system for regular inventory reviews and involve the team in setting goals for waste reduction. Clear communication, proper training, and rewarding good practices will motivate them to take proactive steps.
