Saphran Executive Dinner & Pre-AME Reception
Before the floor opens and the rush of AME begins, join a select group of manufacturing, automotive, and operations leaders for an executive dinner and discussion.
Hosted by Sean Lefever, alongside Adam House Sr., an 8x entrepreneur, CEO advisor, and founder of What The Truck—an experience platform that bridges the gap between elite military execution and corporate leadership.
Bringing Clarity to Your Business Decision Making
Whether you are leading a specialized tactical unit or running a Tier-1 automotive operation, execution always comes down to the same challenge: how do you make definitive, high-stakes decisions when the data on the ground is constantly changing?
In manufacturing, that fog usually lives in the gap between production reality and long-term planning—the persistent discrepancies between what actually leaves your shipping dock and what the program forecast anticipated.
The goal of this dinner isn't to talk about software integrations or data cleanup. Instead, we’re opening up a conversation on how operations leaders are moving past reactive firefighting, using those exact data anomalies to spot shifting market demands early, and protecting profitability before the quarter ends.
What to Expect
Real Storytelling: Adam House Sr. will share raw, unvarnished insights on leading through high-pressure environments and building teams that adapt on the fly.
Peer Dialogue: An open, collaborative discussion on navigating the actual program shifts, supply pressures, and operational hurdles we are all seeing in the industry right now.
An Exceptional Atmosphere: Dinner and pairings curated by MDRD, featuring panoramic views of the Grand Rapids skyline.
