Hey everyone! I've found that managing two twitter accounts has become cumbersome. So I'm joining them together. If you'd like to continue to follow my work or stay in touch, please follow me at @CSweeney1686.
To my #RubberIndustry friends: If you're still looking to connect, please follow me @CSweeney1686 as that is now my primary account. I've merged accounts together so I only have to manage one.

Adient CEO Doug DelGrosso is an intense man. Robotic in his approach. To some he's a bringer of pain, cutting jobs & furloughing corporate employees during the holidays. To others, he's doing the necessary steps to return the company to profitability.
