The steel industry has been a major player in the global economy for centuries, and it continues to be an integral part of our lives today.
With the implementation of Section 232 and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the steel industry has been through a lot in recent years.
However, steel industry veterans like Tim Quinn, a legend in the industry, are here to provide insight and guidance on navigating these turbulent times.
In a recent conversation between Greg Sheldon and Tim Quinn, the two discussed the challenges and opportunities for the steel industry.
Quinn shared that the relationship with suppliers should not be taken lightly, and he encourages customers to diversify their supply chain.
He believes the steel industry needs to diversify its workforce regarding age, gender, and race to attract young talent.
Quinn also believes that the steel industry needs to create more awareness of how "kick-ass it is" to attract more people to the industry.
He talked about the importance of being forward-thinking and investing in technology to create a mobile working environment, which he believes is essential for attracting Gen Z.
He further discussed how the steel industry has evolved since the Industrial Revolution and its use in everyday life.
The conversation then shifted to the impact of imports on the steel industry and the implementation of trade cases and Section 232, which have been felt by the industry in 2018 and 2020, respectively.
Quinn believes the US steel industry needs to think more comprehensively about technology to stay competitive rather than relying on QuickBooks and Excel.
He believes that EOXS, an end-to-end software platform designed to be customizable and user-friendly, is an excellent example.
The conversation ended with Quinn thanking Sheldon for his time and suggesting people find him on his LinkedIn page.
He believes his approach to increasing sales involves creating a culture, filling the org chart with the right people, and holding people accountable for their job descriptions.
He believes this is the key to ensuring the US steel industry will continue to thrive.
