Hugh rocks a mustache like it’s nobody’s business. But it is his business to make sure your organization is just as suave. Hugh went from working for a W2 in what felt like forever then jumping ship into the family manufacturing business without any prior experience. What he had instead was military training and an extensive education in financial IT. This combination meant he had a knack for spotting problems and solving them efficiently. He leaned into this hard as he did with his 80s mustache fashion choice. This week’s episode can’t get any more eccentric.
If you think jumping from tech to manufacturing without experience is crazy, talk about blindly jumping into real estate with little prior knowledge. But soon enough, Hugh came packin’. All it took was two seconds. He preaches a lean process structure that identifies wasted steps while empowering teams to proactively and creatively solve them. A principle that builds a vibrant culture of critical ownership and efficient growth. Hugh has used this to help others create that extra mind space to profit exponentially, proven by his own real estate success. A true zero to (mustached) hero story.

About Hugh:
Lean Manufacturing Bio:
Have over 25,000 hours of Lean Manufacturing background. Helped transform 3 companies into 2-second lean companies by age 28. Since then, founded 2 companies and weaponized his lean lessons against his personal finance and real estate portfolio. Hugh's personal largest achievement was taking a Manufacturing operation from 22 days cycle time, down to 3 hours, while reducing wasted Transportation from 1280 meters to only 36 Meters. The reconfiguration cost that company $20,000. That improvement saves that company ~ $7MM/year, every year moving forward. This was done through understanding not only lean but how to build a dynamic and awesome team of critical thinkers inside a culture of continuous improvement.
When Hugh isn't developing his workforce in the ways of lean, he spends his time educating eager business owners who share the same passion for learning. He can often be found on the shop floor of hundreds of companies helping to train the leadership on how to instill a culture of continuous improvement.
