Under her leadership, the finance rotational program (Career Foundation Program - CFP) flourished. She encouraged the CFP Committee under her to make drastic improvements to the rotational progam. One of the biggest changes that occurred was that new Ford Finance hires now have the opportunity to attend a day long orientation program with those who are hired on the same day as them. This is extremely beneficial because they have the opportunity to meet and make friends with people who are new to the company such as themselves. At the end of the orientation, they all have a framed picture of people who are in their orientation group to keep as a momento. Most importantly, what makes Patty so good at her job is she makes herself very approachable, and she truly cares about people. Everyone in the CFP program knows that they can always contact her with questions, and no matter how busy she may be, she will always respond in a timely manner. You know that you can trust her if you ever need to talk to her privately."
