Bradbury Celebrates Manufacturing Month

We had a wonderful turnout for our celebration of MFG Day on Oct. 14. We opened up our doors for student tours to share opportunities for rewarding careers in manufacturing and highlight the advanced technology we utilize everyday. Students received a full facilities tour along with a chance to compete in hands-on skills challenges and explore our career center booths. This was our biggest year yet! We had over 300 students tour from 13 local schools. We were also happy to invite our technical school partners, Hutchinson Community College and Flint Hills Technical College.

In 2020, the Inaugural Class of Bradbury's Leadership Development Program completed their coursework. In March and April of 2021, two additional groups celebrated their graduation. 

Through the program, the classes strengthened the participants' knowledge of leadership principles that are central to the Bradbury Group's Vision, Mission and Values & Beliefs. 

Marion Die & Fixture is proud to announce the addition of Trenton Lowe to their sales team! Trenton will serve as the Technical Sales Leader and will focus on sales support and prospecting new clients.

Manufacturing Day is typically held during the first week of October where companies open their doors to students to showcase the technology and various job opportunities involved in manufacturing - essentially getting students excited about pursuing careers in STEM. This year, we are taking the event Virtual and hosting online tours throughout the month of October. 

It has been over a year in coming for the participants of Bradbury's first ever Leadership Development Program to reach the finish line. This group of twelve spent countless hours immersing themselves in the teachings of recognized thought leaders such as Marcus Buckingham and John Maxwell; reflecting and capitalizing on their strengths; and reinforcing The Bradbury Group's Vision, Mission and Values & Beliefs.
