Shaping the future of automotive

Hitting electrification mandates, managing economic pressures, geopolitical tensions and navigating changing consumer behaviour is a huge challenge for all players in the automotive sector. When you’re faced with ZEV targets, legislation and supply chain disruptions thinking about your own organisational culture and people can feel impossible. But there’s an ever pressing need to move from traditional manufacturing to new skills required for advanced technology.

You don’t need all the answers. But you do need to attract and retain the leaders, teams and employees who can navigate the changes and drive innovation. Learning and development programmes need to do more than keep your workforce up-to-date with the latest technologies and processes. Organisations choose to work with Impact to help their leaders thrive, ensure change is embraced and talent is engaged. Watch the story of Forvia's award winning programme below, or scroll down for more examples of our work in the automotive sector, including Carview and Jaguar Land Rover.
