[[Hector] I am a master scheduler for seven production lines ]

[here at the plant in Monterrey, Mexico.]

[I just schedule the orders from the customers, [Hector - Master Scheduling & Customer Service]]

[and I check the demand and the capacity of the machines,]

[the human resources, and the material availability.]

[We produce small motors for forklifts or golf carts, ]

[and we have the big motors like these sets.]

[So first I did an internship in the lean manufacturing department.]

[And then I changed to environment, health and safety as an EHS coordinator.]

[So I have 3½ years working for GE.]

[[♪Music♪]]

[[Yolanda] I've been here for a year-and-a-half.]

[[Yolanda - X-ray Line Manufacturing Engineer] My average day will start with a stand up meeting,]

[and we check every day issues, and we also work very close with the quality team]

[so we can perform our work better.]

[My favorite part about working at GE is that I get to make a difference.]

[My name is Susana Báez,]

[and I'm the lean manufacturing leader for the Monterrey Motors plant.]

[[Susana - Lean Manufacturing Leader] Lean manufacturing is about making every process leaner, ]

[so we have to find ways to make our plant more cost efficient, more safe, better quality.]

[It's like football--it's 80% mental and 20% physical.]

[It needs to be 80% on the floor and 20% on the desk.]

[[Yolanda] GE provides you the tools and the training and you just need to do the effort.]

[[Hector] This is a great company;]

[a company where you can grow and you can find a lot of people, diversity,]

[and you can learn about processes.]

[[Susana] GE Latin America is very welcoming and very open.]

[When you walk the shop floor you can see that in their eyes.]

[They love what they do, and that's why they decide to stay here.]
