Japan C&SI Alliance & Netvibes Director, Dassault Systemes as at December 2024 when we recorded this session. Previously Fabio was C&SI Alliance Executive, Dassault Systemes; Global Alliance Director, Strategic Business Director, Director Strategic Pursuit Team, Director Mechatronics Solution at Siemens Digital Industries Software; Project Manager Promec Automotive. Summary A seasoned leader with extensive experience in Japan, he highlights the unique challenges and adaptations required to lead effectively in a Japanese business environment. Having transitioned from a Western leadership model to managing teams in Japan, he underscores the significance of communication, trust-building, and cultural sensitivity. One of the most striking differences Crisafulli encountered was the approach to communication. In contrast to his Italian background, where opinions are expressed directly, he observed that Japanese team members often remain silent in meetings. Instead of voicing their concerns or ideas immediately, they may provide feedback privately afterward. This indirect communication style required him to cultivate an environment where employees felt comfortable sharing their perspectives, even if it meant allowing silence during discussions. He learned to encourage open dialogue and create a psychologically safe space where disagreement was not only tolerated but valued. Crisafulli also emphasizes the importance of leading by example. Rather than issuing direct orders, he believes in granting ownership and responsibility to his team members. By allowing them the freedom to make decisions within a guided framework, he fosters a sense of accountability and motivation. This is particularly crucial in Japan, where employees may be hesitant to take initiative unless they understand their role's significance in the broader strategy. Another key aspect of his leadership philosophy is trust. He makes a deliberate effort to demonstrate trust in his team first, which, in turn, encourages reciprocal trust. He remains observant of body language and behavioural changes, recognizing early warning signs of disengagement or dissatisfaction. If a team member struggles with performance, he engages in direct and private conversations to understand their challenges, offering support or reassignment if needed. Crisafulli has also noticed a shift in younger Japanese employees, who show a greater willingness to take risks and seek innovation compared to past generations. He believes that providing them with opportunities to experiment, even at the risk of failure, fosters both personal and professional growth. In managing headquarters expectations, Crisafulli advocates for adaptability and diplomacy. He encourages executives to move beyond stereotypes about Japan and to understand local business realities firsthand. His approach to leadership is deeply rooted in respect, empowerment, and continuous learning, making him an effective bridge between Western corporate structures and the intricacies of Japanese workplace culture.

Today's podcast comes from the Surface Mount Technology Association SMTAI trade show.   As the demand for smaller, faster, and more powerful devices grows, the need for innovative solutions in circuit design has never been greater. UHDI's represent a significant leap forward, allowing for more connections in a smaller space, pushing the boundaries of what's possible in electronic assemblies. But what exactly are ultra-high-density interconnects? Essentially, they refer to circuit boards with incredibly fine pitch interconnects, enabling higher functionality and complexity in much smaller form factors.  This breakthrough is transforming industries like consumer electronics, aerospace, automotive, and medical devices, where space, weight, and performance are critical factors. In this episode, we'll explore the advantages UHDI's bring to the table, from increased design flexibility and performance to better thermal management. We'll also discuss how UHDI's are set to impact the assembly process. With tighter tolerances and more intricate layouts, UHDI assemblies will require new approaches to assembly, inspection, and reliability testing. To better explain UHDI technology, we've put together a panel of subject matter experts. Tara Dunn, director of training and education at SMTA, will moderate a panel discussion with other subject matter experts, including Anaya Vardya, CEO, of American Standard Circuits; Chrys Shea from Shea Engineering Services; Michael Sivigny, owner and general manager of CeTaQ Americas; and Oren Manor, Op-Center core program business director at Siemens Digital Industries Software.

Welcome to Talking Aerospace Today – a podcast for the aerospace and defense industry. A place that brings the promise of tomorrow's technology to the ears of our listeners today. Automation in the context of digital transformation maturity starts with “automating the mundane,” delegating dull, repetitive tasks that take up engineers' time to computers and machines. Of course, that is not all automation can do. With enough time and investment, aerospace and defense companies (A&D) can begin instituting “authoritative automation” or taking more complex real-world activities and automating them digitally. In this episode, Todd Tuthill, Vice President of the A&D Industry for Siemens Digital Industries Software, guides listeners on what authoritative automation entails, how it differs from the automation discussed in previous episodes, and what authoritative automation looks like in a relatable, non-A&D setting. In this episode, you will learn: The definition of authoritative automation How authoritative automation differs from “automating the mundane” How to get from automating the mundane to authoritative automation A relatable example of authoritative automation outside the industry  Connect with Todd Tuthill: ●     LinkedIn Connect with Patty Russo: ●     LinkedIn Resources: ●     Siemens Aerospace & Defense website
