Intern Project Review
Manager: Rachel Polak
Good morning!
My name is Marisa Sotelo, and this summer I was an MEA intern in the Murfreesboro plant supporting Baking.

2. Safety Contact
Have a plan Inform someone of where you're going and when you plan to return Keep a flashlight and whistle with you Eat well, stay hydrated: carry plenty of water Stay on the trail Ask for HELP! Familiarize yourself with the area, use a map Expect changes in the weather
Since I am the first presenter in the room, I’m going to kick this morning off with a safety contact because we want to make sure to always keep safety at the forefront of everything we do.
This summer one of the activities that the interns in Murfreesboro did was hiking. The hike that we did was about 2 miles long round trip and because it was such a quick hike, we didn’t take very much with us. When we were a mile into the hike it started pouring rain which caused us to turn around and it didn’t stop pouring until we got all the way back to our cars.
Thankfully no one was hurt, we were just all a little soaked. So today I was to remind everyone to HIKE SAFE.
As long as you follow these steps to:
Have a plan Inform someone of where you're going and when you plan to return Keep a flashlight and whistle with you Eat well, stay hydrated: carry plenty of water
Stay on the trail Ask for HELP! Familiarize yourself with the area, use a map Expect changes in the weather
You will have a great time, be prepared for anything, and most importantly come back safe!

6. The second project that I was able to work on was an RBG skills matrix
The second project that I was able to work on was an RBG skills matrix. Because of the expansion caused by Project Stratos in RBG there was a need for this project to drive linear cell capability, since 50% of our people from the past couple years in the RBG department are new hires.
RBG Skills Matrix 13

7. Key Deliverables
Build relationships in RBG to lead development and creation of Skills Matrix
Develop Skills Matrix that enables optimal managing and tracking of skill qualifications by cell
The key deliverables for this project were to Build relationships in the RBG to lead development and creation of Skills Matrix. And, develop a Skills Matrix that enabled optimal managing and tracking of skill qualifications by cell. 14

8. Action Collaborated with RBG key stakeholders
Ability to distinguish training status
Record qualification date
When building this skills matrix I collaborated with RBG key stakeholders in order to ensure that tool aligned with new cell structure. And created a matrix with the ability to distinguish training status, record qualification date, track SME’s and Off Team Skills, and determine Strength of the cell.
Track SME’s and Off Team Skills
Determine Strength of the cell
Collaborated with RBG key stakeholders
Ensure that tool aligned with new cell structure 16

9. Results Created OPL to utilize this tool
Scheduled training with the Management Coordinators and Training Coordinators on use of the tool
Drive repeatable success and sustainability
Easy identification of training needs
RBG TEAM OF 60CELLS OF 20 OR LESS
The results of this project were that I created OPL to utilize this tool, and scheduled a training with the Management Coordinators and Training Coordinators on use of the tool in order to drive repeatable success and sustainability and allow easy identification of training needs. Creating this skills matrix was able to take an RBG team of 60 people into cells of 20 or less people. People are a part of everything we do and we really want to put our employees first. By reducing the number of people in each cell, we are able to better develop and equip our people with the capabilities to make our product every day and feel safe and supported doing it. By building linear cell capability in RBG we are better able to meet our CBN goals of 0 food safety events, 8 unit stops, and 99% casefill. 17
