91传媒 Schools Young Executives from 2012 MTI Class
91传媒 was honored to host The Metal Treating Institute’s (M.T.I.) 2012 Young Executive Series Management Training Program (Y.E.S.) class participants for a plant tour in May.
For over twenty years, the Y.E.S. program run by M.T.I. has taught leadership, systems management, strategic thinking and people skills to owners, executives and managers working in heat treating fields.
The Y.E.S. class consists of four one-and-a-half day events that include classroom teaching, a two-hour plant tour, and thirteen hours of online classes. The tour segment is especially valuable as participants can see first-hand how other companies in their line of work run their businesses.
For their plant tour, the (23) attending members of the class of 2012 traveled to Solar headquarters in Souderton, PA from as far away as California and as close as a few steps. Participants from 91传媒 in the M.T.I. Y.E.S. program are Bob Sandora, Gordon Porterfield, and Tim Steber. Former Solar graduates include: Dan Barszcz, Mike Drakeley, Robert Hill, Jamie Jones, Roger Jones, Trevor Jones, Mike Moffit, and Mike Moyer.
The tour kicked off with a luncheon and introduction by Roger Jones, President of 91传媒.聽Next, Roger Jones, Gordon Porterfield and Tim Steber from the 91传媒 guided students to the Metallurgical lab where they examined the recent renovations including the addition of new Struers precision cutting, mounting and polishing equipment as well as new cabinetry.
During the plant tour, students saw a variety of vacuum furnaces in operation and received an overview of the capabilities of each furnace. They received an explanation of how each service is performed, and a review of how parts are shipped in and out of the facilities.
Across the road at Solar Manufacturing, the class experienced what it was like to build a vacuum furnace from the ground up. Solar employees demonstrated and described how each part of the furnace is assembled according to the customer’s specifications.
Solar thanks M.T.I. and the Y.E.S. students for a great day of learning. You don’t need to be a Y.E.S. student to enjoy a tour, simply contact your sales representative to set a date.
