Welcome to this edition of the IndustryWeek Continuous Improvement newsletter. This week we have a double dose of AI-oriented continuous improvement content for you. Both are podcasts, and neither one suggests replacing people or problem-solving with AI technology. That said, neither do the speakers dismiss the potential benefits of AI, when it is used for the right reasons. Both podcasts take slightly different perspectives and offer lots of food for thought.
Also this week, as I continue to remind you about the 2026 IW Best Plants Awards competition (see article below), it seems to be a good opportunity to share our list of all the winners since the program began. You can find it here: IW's Best Plants Award Winners, 1990-2025. That's a lot of winners over many years.
Without further ado, enjoy today's newsletter. — Jill Jusko, [email protected]
