Chrysler Group LLC’s World Class Manufacturing (WCM) Academy was recognized today in the 2013 Manufacturing Leadership 100 (ML100) Awards, specifically in the New Workforce category, which identifies companies that involve education and training, knowledge management and transfer, and collaboration with educational institutions.
In its ninth year, the ML100 Awards honor those shaping the future of global manufacturing. The awards target projects and individual manufacturing leaders that demonstrate achievement across a wide variety of domains including sustainability, operational excellence, workforce development, innovation, entrepreneurship and industry advocacy.
“On behalf of all who contribute to the WCM Academy, we are humbled by this recognition in the 2013 Manufacturing Leadership 100 Awards,” said Mauro Pino, Head of World Class Manufacturing, Chrysler Group LLC. “The human element is at the center of WCM and is a way of life for Chrysler Group workers. The Company’s success depends on the involvement of its workers and we could not succeed in implementing WCM without the cooperation of the UAW and CAW; it’s a team effort.”
