Boxed In: Growing Up in the Packaging Industry

By Mr J Del Razo

This book tells a story of growing up in the packaging industry. Starting out as a new probationary employee and a 22 year journey to a box plant middle manager. This story covers a time in the 1980's when paper companies were taken over by bigger, better financed competitors or corporate raiders looking to sell off assets for a profit. When drug and alcohol abuse were common in the workplace. A time when unions were mainstream and necessary to protect the industrial workforce. This story tells how culture can have both a positive and negative effect on success. How good leaders can drive a team to exceed expectation and how bad leaders can drive away talent. The stories from this journey may help each reader learn from the mistakes that were made but most of all learn from the successes that drove growth and profitability.
