The awards are presented by the Manufacturing Institute, the workforce development and education affiliate of the National Association of Manufacturers. Savageau is a final assembly supervisor with AGCO's PTx electronics manufacturing facility in Fargo, North Dakota, U.S.

This prestigious honor recognizes women leaders in the manufacturing industry and encourages them to inspire inclusion through helping the next generation of female talent to pursue manufacturing careers.

Savageau started in 2019 as a manufacturing assembler. She now coordinates all the final electronics assembly jobs at the plant, with an eye on process, product quality and safety improvements. Her work requires implementing AGCO's Team Up! Cultural Belief to ensure the correct jobs are ready to manufacture and the work product meets customer expectations.

I feel empowered to continue contributing to positive change. I extend my heartfelt gratitude for this incredible acknowledgment and give a special thanks to my manager for their guidance and support throughout this journey."
