What can you do when an additive manufacturing plan is met with resistance from the decision makers? How do you chip away at conservative positions forged by past experiences or rooted in risk aversion?
Our panelist will reveal the common causes for this reluctance to move forward with additive manufacturing and offer proven approaches that can achieve top-level buy-in.
The core of the conversation will address the risks and rewards that resonate with management, how to prove that the investment is worthwhile, and how to speak in their language. Additionally, the panelists will touch on the need for you to set realistic expectations in your business case.
