Stephenson will report to Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Mike
Johnston and, as a member of Visteon's global leadership team, will
be responsible for all aspects of the company's human resources
practice, including employee recruitment and development,
compensation and benefits, labor relations and organization
strategy and structure. Stephenson has been a human resources
consultant for the past three years, following a 27-year career at
Bethlehem Steel Corp., where most recently she was vice president,
human resources. "Dorothy's leadership experience in a global
manufacturing organization and her outstanding legal knowledge --
along with her ability to attract, develop and retain talented
people -- make her the ideal leader for our human resources
function," Johnston said. "We expect her to play a key role as we
implement our three-year plan to ensure Visteon is not only a
successful company, but one that invests in its people and helps
them grow within the organization." Stephenson succeeds Robert H.
Marcin as Visteon's senior human resources leader. In late 2005,
Marcin assumed a new position developing programs to ensure
excellence in the company's leadership processes at all levels.
"Bob's contributions to Visteon are well known within the company
and the industry, and we look forward to his ongoing strategic
counsel," Johnston said. Stephenson, who holds a law degree from
the University of Louisville School of Law, began her career as a
trial attorney for the National Labor Relations Board. After
joining Bethlehem Steel in 1976 as a labor attorney, she progressed
through several positions of increasing responsibility in the
company's law department, including senior attorney and labor
counsel. In 1990 Stephenson was named corporate manager of union
relations, and in 1994 she became manager of human resources for
Bethlehem Structural Products Corp. In 1996, she was appointed vice
president, human resources, a position she held through 2003. In
addition to obtaining a law degree from Louisville, Stephenson
graduated from the Advanced Management Program at the Harvard
Business School. She has a bachelor of science degree in textiles
and home sciences from the University of Kentucky. Visteon
