Abstract
Research shows that efficient processes through merely optimization of machines and systems are not sufficient in order to be competitive over other companies. The analysis of so called megatrends indicates flexibility, mutability and efficiency as differentiating factors in the competition of production sites. For this purpose employees at all levels of the hierarchy must be capable to be able to act in the future, even in the case of complex challenges and in unfamiliar situations. This article identifies the challenges of future production and derives from this the necessary skills of skilled workers from the production for an exemplary field of action. Based on this, innovative learning approaches are identified in order to develop these competencies.
