LISTEN BACK: From sweeping the floor to management, WIT researcher Dr Mick O'Meara has done it - and now he wants companies to start tapping into the knowledge held by staff.
He returned to education during the recession and is a member of the RIKON research group at Waterford Institute of Technology School of Business which has won the Lean Learning Award at the Lean Business Ireland Awards Ceremony 2019.
His work examines how to impart knoweldge from the floor up towards management. It covers the med-tech sector but Mick wants to stretch it out to other sectors.
Eoghan Dalton spoke to him and his PhD supervisor, Dr Felicity Kelliher at WIT this week.
