Automotive and Mobility
Vehicle manufacturers, component suppliers, electric vehicles, batteries, software defined vehicles and mobility platforms.
The automotive business is being rebuilt around electrification, new brands and digital retail. Distributors and manufacturers need leaders who can protect an established franchise while launching a new one, often with a different customer and margin structure.
We look for leaders with evidence of both disciplines, and we test their judgement on brand portfolio choices, dealer networks and after sales economics, where much of the value in the business sits.
