2011 Hall of Fame Inductee Liz Frisk
Elisabeth (Lis) Frisk graduated from the Executive Secretary program in 1996. While attending MVCTC, Lis was a National Vocational Honor Society member, class treasurer, and actively involved in Business Professionals of America, competing at both the state and national levels. During her senior year at MVCTC, Lis began her advanced placement with Scitex Digital Printing as a Materials Management Assistant. Her impressive job performance motivated Scitex to create a permanent position for her. When Eastman Kodak bought out Scitex, she remained with the company as a Purchasing Specialist and was given additional responsibilities that included providing training for domestic employees and vendors. Lis was sent to Kodak's Rochester, NY, main offices to learn the process of data integration from Oracle to SAP. This led to her creating a technical training manual to use at the Kettering location in Purchasing where she was responsible for the training. When Kodak's IT department saw her manual, they were impressed to the point that they distributed the manual globally for training. Lis now participates in webinars and net meetings providing training and global support on Kodak's purchasing processes in SAP. Her recent accomplishments include being asked to be on a worldwide committee that will make recommendations to Kodak’s Purchasing Council on how to streamline and unify their purchasing processes globally and being nominated by her co-workers for Kodak's “Jane Lanphear Award” that recognizes women leaders across the Kodak company who exemplify the qualities of leadership, work-life balance, community involvement, and serving as role models to help other women grow and achieve their full potential.
