Johnson Controls Building Bikes and Building Community!
Last week I was in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, with Johnson Controls. Johnson Controls, founded in 1885, with the invention of the first electric room
thermostat., is a fortune 100 diversified, multi-industrial company with 130,000 employees in 1,300 locations across six continents. Johnson Controls are responsible for creating quality products, services and solutions to optimize energy and operational efficiencies of buildings; lead-acid automotive batteries and advanced batteries for hybrid and electric vehicles; and interior systems for automobiles. Johnson Controls is currently, ramping up a six month leadership and development program centered around their core values of sustainability, contribution, service leadership and collaboration. Through our Build-A-Bike, team building event, this group embodied the spirit of these values by building and donating 15 bikes to the Boys and Girls club of Milwaukee. With Milwaukee having the second highest unemployment rate in the country, Johnson Controls made a huge impact by giving these gifts of bikes this Christmas season.
