Today’s economies are dramatically changing, triggered by development in emerging markets, the accelerated rise of new technologies, sustainability policies, and changing consumer preferences around ownership. Digitization and new business models have revolutionized other industries, and the automotive industry will be no exception. What does this mean for leadership talent and what can companies do to lead and win?
Diverse mobility, electrification, connectivity and autonomous driving are the four major technology-driven trends in the automotive sector, reinforcing and accelerating one another in an industry that is experiencing rapid disruption.
