“This is the third publication of the Most Influential list, which was first introduced in 1997, and the second time Chrysler had executives named to the list,” said Mary Kramer, Publisher - Crain’s Detroit Business. “In total, these women are among nearly 250 honorees who have in the past, and to this day, continue to make an impact on the community in southeastern Michigan.”
All honorees are lauded for their contributions to the business community of southeast Michigan and for being influential in a particular segment of the business community. In 2002, Chris Cortez, Senior Vice President - Global Service and Parts, made the honors.
