Floyd Ostrowski
University of TennesseeAssistant Professor of Practice, University of Tennessee
Mr. Ostrowski is an assistant professor of practice for the Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering and the University of Tennessee in Knoxville. He has a 40-year progressive track record in advanced manufacturing concepts beginning as a machinist apprentice and culminating in a Chief Operating Officer position with multi-plant, multi-state, international operations experience. He has strong lean manufacturing skills. His work and experience has attained results that have radically streamlined and improved supply chain processes, achieving high levels of profitability, responsiveness, inventory turns and customer satisfaction. This was accomplished through driving the implementations of JIT (pull replenishment), TQM, and employee empowerment (Kaizen Blitz events and cross-functional teams). Mr. Ostrowski earned his B.A. degree in Business Administration from Antioch University in 1990 and his M.S. degree in Industrial Technology, Manufacturing Concentration, from East Carolina University in 2002. He also received executive education from Harvard Business School in operations management and finance.
