\"\"<\/a>General Motors<\/a> has officially added a 13th seat to its board of directors<\/a> just for Cynthia A. Telles. If you live in the greater L.A. area, there’s a good chance that name sounds familiar. She spent a lengthy 13 years as a Los Angeles commissioner, and has background steeped in ethics and equality. But while you’d expect Telles to have some connection to manufacturing or the automotive industry, as far as we can tell, she doesn’t.<\/p>\n

Telles has her Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Boston University, and currently serves as the director of the UCLA Neuropsychiatric Institute Spanish-Speaking Psychosocial Clinic. Try fitting that on a business card. According to the GM press release, she’s also had quite a bit of work published in the mental health field, which means that eventually, Telles may provide us with the answer behind what GM was thinking with cars like the Pontiac Aztec.<\/p>\n

She is quite accomplished in the business world, though. Telles has sat on a number of boards in her time, including slots on the Kaiser Foundation Health Plan and Hospitals, Americas United Bank and Sanwa Bank California, among others. What impact will Telles have on GM? It’s hard to say just yet, but we’ll keep our eyes peeled. <\/p>\n
