If we had only a handful of words to define the trajectory of our lives, what words would we choose? Inspired by her parents, who immigrated to the United States, and her years as a mechanical engineer, Anne Partington, Managing Director of the Tauber Institute for Global Operations at the University of Michigan, encourages us to find those few special words that truly define us. 

With extensive automotive industry experience, Anne has held leadership roles in product development, program management, and global supply chain at General Motors and Stellantis where she led a $3.5 billion mechatronics global purchasing team. She has also led an automobility technology commercialization program at the University of Michigan. Anne holds a BSE in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Michigan and an MSES in Management of Technology from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. 

Anne joins AutoVision News Radio host Carl Anthony to discuss the value of family and inclusion, why placing ourselves where the work is getting done matters, and why advocating for the next generation is vital.
