THE IN.CAR.NATION CODE:
C ̄reating Digital User Value – turning products into experiences
O ̄perating in learning cycles – making agile cycles out of linear processes
D ̄esigning bi-modal organisations – bringing scaling and innovation together
E ̄volving leadership techniques – ushering in the era of post-heroism
Synopsis
The digital transformation has thrown down the gauntlet to Germany’s economic motor, the car industry, and in The In.Car.Nation Code, Dr. Engelbert Wimmer offers an entertaining yet informative handbook on how Automotive can master digital.
The author weaves his factual material into the story of a young executive new to the board of management at a fictional carmaker and an experienced consultant. Together, the two embark on a journey of discovery across the world to the places where the digital and the automotive future are being forged in the crucibles of innovation. Their mission? To develop a master-plan for transforming a plodding corporate giant into an agile digital contender.
It is this vivid, highly realistic narrative that makes “The In.Car.Nation Code” a practical and entertaining handbook for decision-makers in the mobility industry and other industries. Probably the only one in this particular form.
