Press Releases - June, 1998 Brian Gratigny, a recent Indiana University graduate, joins Mangen Research Associates. In a period of time when qualified people are hard to find, Brian stood out immediately by responding to two different Mangen Research ads seeking different skill levels. This eagerness and growth attitude has served Brian well, first at IU and now at Mangen Research. Brian brings a good foundation to his new position with degrees in Psychology and Sociology, as a research assistant in the Social Psychology Lab at IU, skills in both quantitative and qualitative research and SSPS. One would think academic demands plus employment schedules would occupy him. Yet he found time to volunteer in food stands at athletic events for Habitat for Humanity and play intramural soccer and basketball (or course, basketball is pretty much a given in Indiana). Through his educational activity, as a volunteer, in sports, employed as a manager, trainer of employees, customer transaction and complaint processor, Brian is a people person. When you consider our research activity deals with attitudes, motivators and the carious aspects of behavior, people skills are quite significant. When we combine Brian's attitude and eagerness with David Mangen's background as Professor and teacher of Statistics and Research Methodology at the University of Southern California, the real beneficiary will be Mangen Research Associates. |
