On this episode of Automation Happy Hour, I talk with Lisa Block from Hybrid Manufacturing Technology.   

Lisa D. Block is the Chief Revenue Officer for Hybrid Manufacturing Technologies Global and serves on the Board of Directors for the Women in 3D Printing organization. A gifted speaker, author, and entrepreneur, with a background in corporate sales and leadership, her career expands over several industries including fashion, education, automotive design and manufacturing. With over 25 years in business, her most praised attribute is her ability to use her many gifts to shift company culture and customer experience for the better.

In addition to her natural business acumen, Lisa’s knowledge about issues of diversity, equity and inclusion have positioned her to be a key player in crucial conversations so needed in our world today. Most recently, she served a three-year term on the Diversity Advisory Committee for Plano ISD in Plano, TX. With representation of more than 35 countries, this committee serves over 65,000 students and 6,500 staff and faculty in one of the state’s most diverse school districts to date. The self-proclaimed CEO or “Chief Encouragement Officer” seamlessly integrates her passion for business and her love for people. Although she holds many titles, roles and responsibilities, Lisa is most proud to be called mom, where she serves a life sentence to an extremely talented, beautiful and opinionated teenager.
