A conversation with Mary Barra, chair and chief executive officer of General Motors, will be a featured event at the 2022 Electric Utility Fleet Managers Conference (EUFMC), the premier educational conference for fleets that operate utility equipment.
EUFMC will be held June 5-8, 2022, at the Williamsburg Lodge and Conference Center in Williamsburg, Virginia.
As CEO since 2014 and chair of the GM board of directors since 2016, Barra has been instrumental in the company’s wide ranging efforts to improve safety and lower emissions, most recently through the development of electric and autonomous vehicles.
She is also focused on improving customer experience and strengthening GM’s core vehicle and services business. Additionally, she is the chair and a founding member of GM’s inclusion advisory board.
Prior to becoming CEO, Barra served as GM executive vice president of global product development, purchasing and supply chain, and as senior vice president of global product development, where she led teams responsible for the design, engineering, and quality of GM vehicle launches worldwide.
She previously had been vice president of global human resources; vice president of global manufacturing engineering; plant manager of Detroit Hamtramck assembly; and in several other executive, engineering, and staff positions.
Barra began her career with GM in 1980 as a General Motors Institute (Kettering University) co-op student at the Pontiac Motor Division.
Barra is also chair of the Business Roundtable, an association of chief executive officers of America’s leading companies, and she serves on the board of directors of the Walt Disney Company, the Duke University board of trustees, and the Detroit Economic Club.
