The Asia Pacific team rose to the challenge of working spontaneously together across a broad region. While isolated geographically, the free-flowing spontaneous order of communication has made them more in sync with each other, and the folks in the factory to make a greater impact, not to mention their colleagues around the globe. Sascha observes that “In Asia Pacific, the time zone gap alone is making us Principled Entrepreneurs™ - we are getting better and better at communication and knowledge sharing”

One team member transferred from Human Resources to Purchasing based on his unique skills and his motivation to reach our objectives. When introducing him to the role, he was inspired to do some research and find a way to destroy waste and remove an 8% charge on materials. This fresh perspective led the team to realize those savings and discover new opportunities. Soon after, he took on a new challenge in Operations, due to his specific passions, skillset and experiences.
