Flint Lear facility hosts grand opening with tours
A grand opening of the new 156,000-square-foot Lear Corporation seat manufacturing facility situated on 33 acres at the former Buick City site in Flint was held on Saturday, Aug. 11th.
An amazing facility! stated Dartanyan Jamerson, Director of Workforce Development. The Mott Community College Workforce De
velopment team assisted Lear with identifying their talent and new hire on-boarding. Among the attendees from Mott were Dr. Beverly Walker-Griffea, President; Robert Matthews, Associate Vice President of Workforce and Economic Development; Dartanyan Jamerson, Director of Workforce Development; and Kathleen LaVallier, Job Development Specialist.
The plant was built after the company said it decided to move production from its Rochester Hills facility to Flint rather than Mexico. Lear has anticipated hiring more than 430 people for the $29 million seat manufacturing facility supplying General Motors' Flint Truck Assembly plant and employing 600 workers at full production mode by 2019.

What does the scholarship cover?

Together.
Shaping the Future.
American author Sidney Madwed offers the following insight.
"Our subconscious minds have no sense of humor, play no jokes, and cannot tell the difference between reality and an imagined thought or image. What we continually think about eventually will manifest in our lives."
Isn't that true? We get to choose what we think about. And those thoughts determine our actions. When a negative thought comes up, acknowledge it in a neutral manner, don't allow it to become "one" with you, then gently set it aside and choose a different thought--one that will move and empower you. We can be a victor or a victim of our minds.
