Bamboozled into a Manufacturing Career with Laura Marasco, West-Conn Tool
Manage episode 340296154 series 2581886
Laura Marasco took a winding path of leadership roles in finance that prepared her, brilliantly, but unwittingly, for a great career in Manufacturing! Listen as she tells Ari her story of going from banking to West-Conn Tool and how all her experiences lined up perfectly to bring her to her current CEO role (a role she took over from her husband, Dave).
Without batting an eye, Laura has helped navigate West-Conn Tool from ISO 9000 certification, through a new ERP system, and then on to high-tech additive manufacturing.
Laura's favorite business books:
Infinite Game, Simon Sinek
Principles, Ray Dalio
