In this podcast, we have Mr. Thomas Andersson, Head of Business Transformation at Volvo Cars, who shares some of his insights and experiences. I was fortunate to attend one of his talks at Babson, which was hosted by Dr. Lidija Polutnik, where I gained some very valuable insights into how Volvo approaches innovation and constant improvements.
