Hi Leadership Community,
Episode 124 of the Leadership in Manufacturing Podcast dropped this week, and it’s all about building the next generation of leaders through apprenticeships.
This time, host Sannah Vinding sits down with Andreas Brockmann, Apprenticeship Coordinator at UNITED GRINDING North America, who has spent more than 30 years in engineering and training. He shares how a four-year apprenticeship program is preparing young technicians for success while transforming company culture.
Andreas explains why apprenticeships are not just training programs but long-term investments in people, skills, and leadership. He also reveals the lessons he’s learned about mentorship, management buy-in, and the culture shifts that happen when fresh talent joins the floor.

✅ Why apprenticeships are a long-term investment, not a cost
