ATTILA MATO

YOUR PARTNER IN REMARKABLE CHANGE

“Especially Zsuzsi F., Attila M. and Attila Mato, came in at a very difficult time/situation and have been extremely helpful and supportive from day one, even when we had daily calls. They were there to provide solutions under extreme pressure and be firm and stand their ground, when the request was unreasonable. I cannot stretch enough, that without their daily support we would potentially face line stoppages at the various plants.“

YOUR PARTNER IN REMARKABLE CHANGE

I don’t believe in overnight success
There is no such thing as free lunch

Instead, I show you how to focus on the main goals and execute them that are worths of millions of your company. Make systematic changes continuously.

Master those and skyrocket your progress.

Teach and learn
Get most of my knowledge for free

Learn, implement the great stuff. You will get real hands-on advice other consultants would hide from you. And please… teach it to others. This is the right way.

I allow only a limited number of customers to take my premium services.

Values I believe in
They help me to make decisions

  • Focus on the customer
  • Results are all that matters
  • Integrity – walk the talk
  • Transparency and communication

 

I know you are busy
and I have to earn your trust with every info I give.

If you are curious, here is a little bit about me.

When I started, I had no idea what value I can bring to the company. I remember the words of my supervisor on the day I started my carreer:
“8 yrs from now you will say you have 8 years of experience. What will it mean?
It can be 8 years of experience with continuous challenges year after year or it can be one year’s experience repeated eight times… And the difference is huge. The choice is yours.”

That’s when I decided to learn how step out of my comfort zone continuously and have a remarkable career.

Initially, I had no idea what I was doing. I was lucky with the trainings and the challenges I got. Even if I made mistakes I learned quickly: execution is king.

You don’t have to have the best solution for every issue. If you have a good enough solution, then you can fix things quickly and improve them by time. You will gain results and your customers will be satisfied faster.

The better I became the more I started to share my knowledge. I started to build teams and became proud of what they achieved. 

If you make millions to your company it leads to some awesome challenges and opportunities. Knowing how to set goals and execute the plans can open doors that for you, too. 

I gained experience in product design, program management and operations. The challenges involved plant launch, product development, production transfers and stabilization, business development, continuous improvements and restructuring.  As a GM of a leading automotive company in Hungary I also had to close the plant and move the business out of the country. 

These all required team building and motivational skills. I became great in running operations and also expert in crisis management. It does not matter which mode I was in, there was no shortcut allowed, each action had to support sustainable results. 

Are you facing some challenges and looking for professionals? Check out below, in what projects I can help you with my team and partners.

Build a plant. Build a team. Establish the quality system. Get to know you customers and gain their trust. All at the same time. Transfer some lines, start the operation, improve it and win new business. Provide break even results in a few years. 

This is a  great opportunity to the company. This is a great challenge many professional is dreaming about. A big opportunity where they can put a dent on the universe. They start like no one else. Confidence is high. Til the life starts to test the new systems and processes… and they get under water. 
It becomes evident soon that these golden days will define the future of plant, or at least the next 5-7 years. If the team misses something and don’t manage it ASAP, then they will need tremendous efforts to fix it later. And the cost will be huuuuge….
Launching a plant and operating a plant has many things in common but different. At least, some of your team has to have experience how to start from scratch. There is no such a thing as free lunch. 
You need experienced professionals, who see the risks and act fast. This is where I can help by being part of your team or supporting them.

Leading thru Crisis and Building Winning Teams

“Production performance is poor. Team is good but undermotivated. Come here, meet them. You can replace any of them, if needed. Replace them all, in worst case. Make actions. I want results. Build a top performing team who will be able to manage the future projects.“

Sounds familiar? I got similar tasks many times. When I usually meet the team it quickly becomes evident that they usually have aspirations and they know how to fix the issues. They just need to additional support and motivation. They have to learn how to make actions, fast. How to communicate properly. The key is to change the scarcity mindset to abundance and You will be thrilled about their results.  

Some results:
  • Transferred lines with poor performance were improved in 6 months. The output increased by 20% while continuous production reduced to 5-days-production and scrap went down by 60%.
  • Product line running in backlog and customers on-site on regular basis for years were taken out of escalation within a year. Customers were out of the doors quickly and after stabilization the productivity skyrocketed. 
  • Eliminate escalation. Communicate. Fix operations and deliver results. Create winning teams. Get satisfied customers leading to new business.

How do I know that you can achieve it too? 

I did it many times: years ago, I got a team whose members were on the lay-off list and one year later they were the ones other departments aggressively wanted to get. The competitors tried to get them also but they did not leave the company. The team became committed to the goals.
I had teams which had to learn how to work together then 2 years later they were asked to give support to other production plants in Europe, US, Mexico or China. They delivered and fixed the issues – they became members of task force and tiger teams as well beside their plant performance was continuously improving with results visible for the stakeholders and the customers.

    Restructuring, Plant Closure

    You are facing a restructuring or even worse, you want to close a plant. On time and within budget. Without stopping your customer. You might have a plan. 
    You know that you need to have a communication plan and define a core team you want to keep til the end. There will be extreme pressure during execution. Some of them might give up (some will) and you might expect increased fluctuation (you will). There is a risk quality might suffer (it will) and the customers might escalate and become demanding (they will). As you reduce the headcount the structure changes – the less people you have the more hats they will have to wear (they will). Processes might get mixed (they will). Getting support from other sister plant will be nearly impossible. They would need to release the professional with the most experience. They can give support for a few days (they will) but not for weeks (they won’t). They don’t understand what you are doing and why you need to manage things differently. You will not be able to keep the processes and keep the same controls. Compliance gets questioned many times. As the core team gets shrinked many unfinished tasks will show up and you will have to manage them quickly. Dealing with lawyers, customers, suppliers and still keeping financials. And timing. You get more and more vulnerable. The situations can get scary like hell. 
    And that is okay. This is dealing with ambiguity.
    You can manage that and you will. The key is to keep the focus. Simplify the message. Great leaders are great communicate complex situations in a simple form. This helps their team.
    Make sure your core team is keeping the focus also and they don’t have to think about anything else. Keep them motivated. Frequent communication to everyone. Identify the risks and mitigate them. When shit hits the fan, act fast. No need to know all steps in advance, just keep the control. I will help you thru this journey. 
    You will stay calm and your team will be amazed how you lead them thru crisis. Your team needs you and your experience and you will help them succeed.
