Case Study: Lockheed Martin achieves smoother employee return-to-work after strike with Reputation Partners

Lockheed Martin returns 3,600 employees to work with Reputation Partners

Lockheed Martin, a global security and aerospace company, faced a significant labor communications challenge following an eight-week strike by over 3,600 union members. The company enlisted Reputation Partners to develop strategies for the employees' return-to-work and to reinforce safety and work rules after decades of a union-dominated environment.

Reputation Partners conducted extensive due diligence and focus groups to understand the culture and dynamics. They developed a training program to empower frontline supervisors to communicate effectively and enforce new policies with the returning union workforce. As a result, more than 3,600 employees returned to work. Reputation Partners equipped the company to better engage with all employees, leading to improved supervisor confidence, productivity, and compliance with key policies.
