While my team members focus on delivering technical, hands-on guidance, I provide instruction to all of our leadership including senior staff, supervisors and team leads on several company culture initiatives and continued education programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the courses I conduct include a frontline leaders\u2019 program, which focuses on curriculum around Flex\u2019s mission, values and goals for leads and supervisors, and then an emerging leaders\u2019 variation of the same course for managers and senior managers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, I teach a seminar on creating trust at the center of work relationships and lead a behavioral assessment workshop that helps employees better communicate and explore ways they can achieve greater alignment within their teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of my responsibilities, I analyze training needs, conduct subject research and develop and deliver the content after determining the optimal platform. From there, I assess participant learning and incorporate feedback to progress the training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My role has evolved over the years in different learning and development capacities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-can-you-explain-that-evolution-including-how-covid-19-has-affected-training-protocols\" style=\"font-weight:600\">Can you explain that evolution, including how COVID-19 has affected training protocols?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Working at our Memphis site, our primary focus is <a href=\"\/solutions-and-services\">services and solutions<\/a>. While we execute some forward logistics, our larger offering is <a href=\"https:\/\/flex.com\/solutions-and-services\/post-production\">aftermarket returns and repairs<\/a>. Accordingly, when I started 15 years ago, I was helping design operational training and repair processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, as our corporate needs advanced so did my role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Flex began sharing and collating best practices from various sites to collaboratively create core trainings that included a \u201cbest of\u201d curriculum on individual subjects. I was able to contribute to our new hire training, which was a comprehensive 8-hour seminar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In recent years, I have helped navigate the shift to more on-demand learning, and I have facilitated and administered courses that are specific to individual sites. That evolution has accelerated in the current COVID-19 environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-what-kind-of-education-and-background-prepared-you-for-this-role\" style=\"font-weight:600\">What kind of education and background prepared you for this role?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It has been my good fortune to teach at all levels and to many audiences. My undergraduate degree is from The University of Memphis and then I earned a Master of Science in Educational Leadership and Administration from Pepperdine University. I have taught in community-based programs as well as at Beverly Hills High School. Prior to Flex, I was a college instructor at Moore College of Technology in Memphis. Each level of providing instruction has given me a new perspective on how to prepare for different audiences, and I have encountered a blend of experiences, backgrounds and skills.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"spacer block\" style=\"height: 24px;\">\n\t<\/div>\n\n<div id=\"id-69e92d08480ae\" class=\"box block content-width dark-content es \" style=\"background-color: transparent; background-image: none;\">\n\t<style>\n\t\t#id-69e92d08480ae > .container > .content {\n\t\t\tbackground-color: #eaeef4ff;\n\t\t\tposition: relative;\n\t\t\tpadding-top: 12px;\n\t\t\tpadding-right: 36px;\n\t\t\tpadding-bottom: 12px;\n\t\t\tpadding-left: 36px;\n\t\t\tmargin-left: 0px;\n\t\t\tmargin-right: 0px;\n\t\t}\n\t\t@media (max-width: 1272px) {\n\t\t\t#id-69e92d08480ae.box.block.full-width > .container > .content {\n\t\t\t\tpadding-left: 0 !important;\n\t\t\t\tpadding-right: 0 !important;\n\t\t\t\tmargin: 0 !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t}\n\t\t@media (max-width: 960px) {\n\t\t\t#id-69e92d08480ae > .container > .content {\n\t\t\t\t\/\/padding-top: 6px;\n\t\t\t\tpadding-right: 18px;\n\t\t\t\t\/\/padding-bottom: 6px;\n\t\t\t\tpadding-left: 18px;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t}\n\t<\/style>\n\t<div class=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"content\">\n\t\t\t\n<div id=\"block_97bca168350cdbc833bc7059436b2194\" class=\"quote block no-horizontal-padding dark-content\">\n\t<div class=\"container\" style=\"background-color: #eaeef4;\">\n\t\t<div class=\"quote-lines-top\"><\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"quote-marks-top\" style=\"background-color: #eaeef4;\">\n\t\t\t<svg viewBox=\"0 0 33 27\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"m33 20.8c0-3.9-2.9-6.3-6.4-6.3-1.1 0-1.8.3-2.1.5.1-4.3 3.3-9 8-10.1v-4.9c-6 .6-14.2 5.9-14.2 18.2 0 5.9 3.6 8.8 7.8 8.8 3.9 0 6.9-2.8 6.9-6.2zm-18.3 0c0-3.9-2.9-6.3-6.4-6.3-1.1 0-1.8.3-2.1.5.1-4.3 3.3-9 8-10.1v-4.9c-6 .6-14.2 5.9-14.2 18.2 0 5.9 3.6 8.8 7.8 8.8 3.9 0 6.9-2.8 6.9-6.2z\" fill=\"#fff\"\/><\/svg>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<div id=\"id_69e92d08418c0\" class=\"media block\">\n\t<div class=\"container media-left content-top\">\n\t\t<div class=\"media\" style=\"left: 0px; min-width: 360px; max-width: 360px;\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"image none\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Scedella Gregory, Operations Training Specialist\" src=\"https:\/\/flex.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/celebrating-black-history-month-meet-scedella-gregory-1.png\" title=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"content\" style=\"margin-right: 0px; margin-left: 36px;\">\n\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"spacer block\" style=\"height: 60px;\">\n\t<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size\">The learning opportunity here is tremendous for those in supply chain and manufacturing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u2014 Scedella Gregory, Operations Training Specialist<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<script>\n\t(function () {\n\t\tlet hasRun_id_69e92d08418c0 = false;\n\t\tfunction updateVideoDisplay_id_69e92d08418c0() {\n\t\t\tconst youtubeVideoId = \"\";\n\t\t\tconst bynderID = \"\";\n\t\t\tconst mediaType = \"image\";\n\t\t\tconst mediaVideoElement = document.getElementById('media-video-id_69e92d08418c0');\n\t\t\tconst bodyClass = document.body.className || '';\n\t\t\tconst match = bodyClass.match(\/translatepress-([a-z]{2})(?:_[A-Z]{2})?\/i);\n\t\t\tconst currentLanguage = match ?

My goal is to keep up with technology to ensure that training formats remain fresh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-you-have-worked-at-flex-for-over-15-years-what-continues-to-inspire-you-about-the-company\" style=\"font-weight:600\">You have worked at Flex for over 15 years. What continues to inspire you about the company?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The learning opportunity is tremendous for those in supply chain and manufacturing. I often refer to myself as a lifelong learner. Just as I explain to new hires or anyone who wants to make supply chain services a career: working here is an education that you can\u2019t buy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Every project presents new challenges and the opportunity for great outcomes. We regularly work with team members who are continually challenged yet are driven to achieve extraordinary results for our customers and Flex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-if-someone-were-to-ask-you-about-the-company-culture-how-would-you-describe-it\" style=\"font-weight:600\">If someone were to ask you about the company culture, how would you describe it?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our culture is one of <a href=\"\/solutions-and-services\/manufacturing#quality-efficiency\">continuous improvement<\/a> and built on our values, with one being \u2018we support each other as we strive to find a better way.\u2019 This particular value is a testament to our collaborative environment that challenges us to improve ourselves and our teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It starts with our leadership staff in Memphis. They are very accessible and personable. If someone is involved in a project that you need to discuss, the leadership team is available to help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Teams have a desire to be our best and to excel. Flex gives us a road map of how to get to the next level and the collaborative means to support ourselves on this journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-having-trained-so-many-people-at-flex-can-you-name-one-of-your-more-memorable-experiences\" style=\"font-weight:600\">Having trained so many people at Flex, can you name one of your more memorable experiences?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of my most memorable experiences was also one of my most inspiring. A few years ago, I lost my voice due to a neurological ailment for a period of time. I could not speak without impairment, but for some unknown reason I was able to read aloud with great precision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We had a culture-based training I was developing for senior staff members, and I really wanted to deliver the session. From the start, my manager was supportive about finding a solution that worked for me, which involved creating and pre-recording eight hours of training content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I knew the staff was not looking forward to sitting through eight hours of recording on a Saturday, but they turned up and were the ones who were deeply appreciative of me and applauded my efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was a great example of the open, collaborative and encouraging culture I mentioned previously &#8211; leadership supported me and made the adjustments necessary so I could successfully finish the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-what-are-your-hobbies-or-passions-outside-of-work\" style=\"font-weight:600\">What are your hobbies or passions outside of work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I have an incredibly deep passion for community service. I am the first national vice president of an auxiliary to an international fraternal organization. Our mainstay is providing service to the community with initiatives that support the National Association of Mental Health, St Jude\u2019s Hospital and March of Dimes, among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am also a graduate member of my college sorority. As the local chapter\u2019s global impact chairperson, I am leading an initiative to make dresses out of pillowcases for children in Haiti, collecting eyeglasses to distribute to communities that lack equal access to vision care and providing support services to our local refugee resource center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m fortunate I get to live my passion for community service at Flex. I\u2019m the community lead and the editor of our site\u2019s newsletter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am also passionate about my faith and my family. We are members of the A.M.E. Connectional Church where I serve as a deacon (steward). My daughter earned her Doctorate from Howard University and now works to expand broadband access to underserved communities. She and her husband are the parents of my two young grandsons, my firsts, whom I adore.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"spacer block\" style=\"height: 96px;\">\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div
