Event Description:

Screening followed by discussion with Julia Reichert and Steven
Bognar, "American Factory" Directors; Meg Rithmire, HBS BGIE Professor
and China Expert; and Kris Rondeau, Director of AFSCME New England The
film profiles the launch of the Fuyao Glass factory in Moraine, Ohio,
sited in a former General Motors plant. To launch the factory, Fuyao
brought in hundreds of experienced Chinese factory workers to Ohio to
train their U.S. counterparts. The film provides the economic and
social issues this sparked, including management challenges associated
with labor dynamics, a unionization effort, and managing an operation
with workers from two very different cultures.
