Mihaela Marin

• Manage team's operational production work flow among the different duties performed by team members to meet the daily production goals (quantity and quality) including cross-functional production work coordination (i.e. fancy color grading, RQ, coordinating with pre-grading team on stone distribution plan, etc.)
• Manage resources required (i.e. equipment/devices, staff's work schedules, etc.) to maximize daily productivity and operational efficiency
• Provide feedback, coach, engage, motivate and support team members on an ongoing basis including setting up individual development plan (IDP) for professional development, meeting the team regularly to review team production status and identify any issues or areas for improvement, etc.
• Plan and support the development of team members' professional knowledge, skills & abilities to build capacity and drive organizational effectiveness. Build strong teams through valuing, leveraging & maximizing diverse skills and perspectives to achieve common goals
• Work closely with different departments to clarify and improve procedures used in daily activity, proactively participate in and provide recommendations for improvement of Lab's operational processes and systems
