New Collaboratory Director

The Collaboratory for Strategic Partnerships and Applied Research at Messiah is pleased to inform the Messiah community that Doug Flemmens has accepted the position of Collaboratory director, a 12-month administrative position that begins July 15. Doug has a background in industrial engineering and has worked in management and administration for two local firms in recent years: Graham Packaging and Tyco Electronics. He describes himself as a hands-on contributor with broad experience who prefers to lead from the middle. His professional work includes cross-cultural management in Asia, and he has led a church partnership and short-term missions to Jamaica for several years in ministry to the deaf community.
