About Jenn DonahueJenn is a 27-year retired Navy combat veteran who served on the ground in Iraq and Afghanistan. If you are wondering what the Navy does on the ground, well, she was part of the expeditionary construction group called the Seabees. They deploy to hostile regions and build bases, repair and build roads and bridges, and drill water wells. She retired in 2022 as the Commodore in charge of an 1800-personnel Regiment. Along the way I've dealt with numerous obstacles including self-doubt, fear, and imposter syndrome. Being in charge of a unit that is 90% male construction workers had its own set of challenges. Through my many experiences including getting shot at, having insurgents try to blow up our base, and even an assassination attempt on my life, I found a way to transcend barriers and unlock true potential.https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenndonahue-phd-pe/https://www.jenndonahue.com/---------------------------------About Joe SprangelMy work as an author includes "Humanist Manufacturing: A Humanitarian Approach to Excellence in High-Impact Plant Operations." The book introduces the Humanist Manufacturing framework encompassing what I see as the evolving elements of an exemplary manufacturing operation. I saw a need for a book that laid out a framework that could shape the unique requirements for completing a significant manufacturing operation transformation—one where manufacturing exists for a higher purpose benefiting all internal and external stakeholders.https://www.emmanuelstrategicsustainability.com/----------------------------------When It Worked Podcasthttps://getoffthedamnphone.com/podcast
