Podcasts about General Motors

The CEO of General Motors says the automaker remains committed to an all-electric-vehicle future. That's despite the company lobbying Congress to repeal California's emissions rules and backpedaling on plans to build out an EV motor plant.

In this episode of Watchdog on Wall Street, we take a hard look at how corporate giants like General Motors are bending the knee to whichever political wind is blowing—left, right, or upside down.Mary Barra plays the DC game like a pro, flipping from Trump's tariffs to Biden's EV mandates and back again, all while pocketing billions in subsidies and government favors. Is this capitalism? Or is it state-controlled cronyism wrapped in red tape?We connect the dots between appeasement economics, taxpayer-funded bailouts, and the revolving door of political power that's dictating how American businesses run. From tariffs to tax credits, climate goals to corporate virtue signals—this is the true cost of letting Washington call the plays.Because when CEOs take orders from politicians, we're not in a free market anymore. We're in something else entirely. Tune in. www.watchdogonwallstreet.com

From Formula One espionage that cost McLaren $100 million to landmark rulings that protect the very shape of your car, we're lifting the hood on how innovation is fueled, protected, and occasionally stolen in the world of wheels.The modern automobile isn't just a mechanical marvel—it's a rolling portfolio of intellectual assets. We examine how Ferrari's trade secrets became the center of motorsport's biggest scandal, why even windshield wipers can trigger multi-million dollar lawsuits, and how Jeep successfully defended its iconic seven-slot grille from imitators. These aren't just courtroom dramas; they're case studies in how IP shapes everything you drive.As cars become computers on wheels, we explore new frontiers in automotive IP. BMW's battle against unauthorized 3D models raises profound questions about brand protection in digital realms.

Discover why automotive innovation isn't just about what's under the hood—it's about what's inside the contracts, patents, and courtrooms that determine which technologies hit the road and which remain on the drawing board.Send us a text

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1055: Today we cover Stellantis' new CEO facing a storm of tariffs and dealer tensions, GM's surprising pivot back to big V-8s, and DeLorean's futuristic EV launch… that's more crypto maze than car.Show Notes with links:After a six-month search, Stellantis has named Antonio Filosa as its new CEO. With more than 25 years in the industry and leadership experience across Brazil, North America, and global roles, Filosa is stepping in as the company faces pressure on multiple fronts.Filosa starts as CEO on June 23, replacing Carlos Tavares after his December resignation.Currently COO for the Americas and global chief quality officer, he's credited with restoring confidence internally.Challenges include reversing a 10% Q1 shipment drop, regaining dealer trust, and addressing a potential $7.1B hit from Trump's proposed 25% tariffs.Filosa has reinstalled key leadership—bringing back Ram's Tim Kuniskis and U.S. sales head Jeff Kommor—to stabilize operations.“One of my first decisions has been to bring back talents that we lost in the past,” Filosa told reporters in January.The EV slowdown has prompted General Motors to double down on internal combustion, shelving a $300 million plan for EV motors at its Tonawanda, NY plant and instead committing a massive $888 million to next-gen V-8 engine production.The site will continue producing Gen 5 V-8s while ramping up for Gen 6 engines by 2027.New engines will feature performance-boosting and emission-cutting innovations.Investment includes machinery, tooling, and facility upgrades—the largest ever for a GM engine plant.New York Governor Kathy Hochul said the project will support 870 jobs at Tonawanda Propulsion, including 177 jobs deemed at risk“This investment shows the company's commitment to strengthening American manufacturing,” said CEO Mary Barra.The DeLorean Alpha5 EV promised a high-tech return to the future, but it's now stuck in development limbo, with no production timeline or pricing—and buyers are being asked to reserve with cryptocurrency and NFTs.Reservations require $2,500 in USDC crypto via a specialized Slush Wallet and purchase of an NFT.No refunds are offered—buyers can resell their spot in line to recoup funds.Fewer than 600 reservations have been made, with some resale spots priced up to $40,000.The Alpha5, if it arrives, will offer 300+ miles of range and sub-3-second 0-60 performance.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Are Ford and GM doomed? Host Jack Russo and his guest Pat Duke dive into the electrifying shift toward EVs and why legacy automakers may not survive it.

This week's episode of America on the Road features road tests of two standout vehicles--the 2025 Honda Civic Sport Touring hatchback and the 2025 Mazda CX-5 Carbon Turbo. Co-Host Chris Teague put the Civic Sport Touring hatchback to the asphalt, and he found it to be one of the best values in the stellar Civic lineup. Powered by a hybrid system pairing a 2.0-liter Atkinson-cycle engine and electric motor, it delivers 200 horsepower and 232 lb-ft of torque. With 50 mpg city and 45 highway, it's one of the most efficient compact cars available, while at the same time delivering laudable performance. Four drive modes, a refined suspension, a 9-inch infotainment screen with Google built-in, a 12-speaker Bose audio system, and full Honda Sensing safety suite round out a well-equipped, tech-forward package. He'll offer a full report. Host Jack Nerad took the wheel of the 2025 Mazda CX-5 Carbon Turbo, a $39,455 compact SUV with 227 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque from a turbocharged 2.5-liter engine. All-wheel drive, a six-speed automatic, and premium touches like Terracotta leather-trimmed seats and a 10-speaker Bose system give it a refined edge. Though fuel economy sits at 24 mpg combined, the CX-5 impresses with its sophistication, design, and feature-rich value. And it is arguably the most fun-to-drive vehicle in its segment. At the same time, its price might surprise -- or even shock-- you. At the top of the news, we detail the debut of the 2026 Lexus RZ, now offered in three EV variants, including the new 402-horsepower F SPORT. Lexus has improved its range, added fast charging, and introduced performance upgrades like “M Mode,” which simulates manual shifting. Meanwhile, the 2026 Honda CR-V gets tech and trim upgrades, including a new off-road-ready TrailSport Hybrid model with standard AWD and improved fuel economy. All trims now offer wireless phone integration and larger screens. Not to be outdone, Toyota pulled the wraps off the all-new 2026 RAV4, the CR-V's chief nemesis, and we'll have more details on its gala introduction next week. In this week's auto-political news, a U.S. Senate resolution could overturn California's authority to enforce its 2035 all-EV mandate. Backed by automakers and dealers, supporters argue it protects national market consistency, while critics warn it could undercut state autonomy and slow EV adoption. Another legal battle has emerged between the California New Car Dealers Association and Honda/Sony over direct-to-consumer Afeela EV sales. The CNCDA claims these sales violate franchise laws requiring manufacturers to work through licensed dealers. The case may set a major precedent as EV startups and joint ventures explore nontraditional retail models. Also in the news, General Motors has halted U.S. exports to China, citing trade tensions and the winding down of its premium Durant Guild brand. GM will continue operating in China through joint ventures, but this move signals shifting priorities amid rising tariffs and regulatory uncertainty. This week's guest, Andre Ravinowich, Senior Manager of Product Planning at Hyundai, joins the show to talk about the all-new Hyundai Ioniq 9, a large electric SUV set to broaden Hyundai's EV lineup with space, performance, and tech innovation. Nerad drove the new battery-electric wonder during a Hyundai-sponsored event in Savannah, Georgia. To close out the show, the listener question of the week comes from Stanley in Macon, Georgia, who asks: “What's your take on the return of sedans and smaller cars? Are they gone for good, or do you think there will be a comeback for cars?” Jack and Chris weigh in, noting that while crossovers dominate, rising vehicle prices, tighter parking, and renewed interest in efficiency could trigger a modest resurgence for sedans and compacts—especially hybrids and EVs. Jack Nerad's newest book Jack is now offering his newest crime novel, Only One Thing Stays the Same,

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1051: We're diving into the Senate's move to block California's gas car ban, Google's new video AI that adds audio, and which brands — including top automakers — gained or lost consumer trust in the 2025 Axios/Harris reputation rankings.Show Notes with links:In a dramatic legislative twist, the U.S. Senate voted to block California's plan to ban gas-powered vehicles by 2035, undercutting a key Biden-era environmental policy and dealing a blow to a major state-led push for zero-emission standards.The Senate vote was 51-44 to rescind the EPA waiver allowing California stricter emissions rules.11 states following California's policy would be impacted, including NY and WA.Auto dealers and manufacturers lobbied hard for the repeal, citing feasibility concerns.The move defies Senate precedent and a legal ruling from the parliamentarian.“You can be against the ACC II EV mandates (we were) and believe that transportation is trending toward a range of electrified products like battery electric vehicles, hybrids and plug-in hybrids (it is). That's what balance looks like. And balance is not only good for consumers, but essential for the U.S. auto industry to remain healthy and globally competitive,” said John Bozzella, CEO of the Alliance for Automotive Innovation.Axios and The Harris Poll just dropped their annual brand reputation rankings, and the message from consumers is loud and clear: keep prices fair, quality high, and don't exploit inflation. Brands that did well stuck to those basics.Nearly half of all corporate reputations declined this year, driven by frustration over high prices and perceived drops in quality.77% of Americans say companies are charging more for lower quality; 63% have stopped buying from a brand due to high costs, and 54% over declining product standards.The biggest winners? Companies focused on delivering consistent value.Top 10 most reputable brands: Trader Joe's, Patagonia, Microsoft, Toyota Motor Corporation, Costco, Samsung, Arizona Beverage Company, Nvidia, UPS, AppleAutomotive brands on the list: Toyota (#4, up 8), Honda (#13, down 6), General Motors (#44, down 4), Hyundai (#51, no change), Volkswagen (#53, up 16), Ford (#60, down 5), Tesla (#95, down 32 in the largest move of any company on the list).At its I/O 2025 developer conference, Google unveiled Veo 3 — the latest version of its AI video generator, now with the ability to create synchronized sound. That includes background noise, effects, and even simple dialogue to match the video it produces.The new model builds on Veo 2 with better visuals and now audio that aligns automatically with what's on screen.Google says it's the first step away from “silent” AI-generated video — a space that's getting crowded with startups and big names like OpenAI and AlibabJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Join us for a special episode featuring Lou Carbone, widely regarded as the father of the experience management movement. As the founder, president, and chief executive, Chief Experience Officer of Experience Engineering, a Minneapolis-based consulting firm dedicated to customer and employee experience management, Lou brings over 30 years of expertise to the discussion. He pioneered the field with his groundbreaking 1994 article "Engineering Customer Experiences," which may have originated the term "customer experience."   Lou is also the author of the book Clued in, How to Keep Customers Coming Back Again and Again and has worked with major companies like Pizza Hut, KFC, Avis, H&R Block, General Motors, IBM, and Taco Bell. He has lectured and taught at leading institutions like Harvard Business School and Cornell School of Business and is currently a Professor of Practice at Michigan State University in the Customer Experience Management Program.   Why listen?   Lou believes the profession is at a crossroads and will challenge conventional thinking about CX, exploring the current state of the profession and offering insights into moving beyond traditional approaches to create truly distinctive value.   He will discuss how organizations can shift their focus from how customers feel about the brand to how they cause them to feel about themselves after interacting with the brand, highlighting the critical role of emotional imprinting in designing memorable experiences that drive value. Tune in as we explore: •What does it mean when we say "customers cannot not have an experience," and how does this fundamental truth shape the approach to experience management? •How can organizations move beyond fixing problems ("fixing broken") to design experiences that leverage emotional imprinting and lead to "distinctive economic value"? •In a world where the definition of CX is fragmented, how can understanding "next practices" rooted in emotion, psychology, and neuroscience help prove the ROI and Return on Strategy of experience management initiatives? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review the Delighted Customers podcast on your favorite platform!

What do you do when your team is full of talent…but you're still carrying all the weight? You know what I'm talking about — that moment you realize you're the one pushing every conversation forward… ...holding everyone accountable… ...keeping the mission alive. It's exhausting. Let's be real — you're not leading a team. You're dragging one.That's why I'm excited to share the conversation I had with leadership expert and #1 NYT Best-selling author, Keith Ferrazzi — a man who's worked with some of the most elite executive teams in the world — think General Motors, the country of Bhutan (yes, the country), and some of the fastest-growing startups in tech. Keith just released a new book called Never Lead Alone and it's a straight-up manual for how the best leaders are shifting from command and control to building teams that actually LEAD WITH THEM. In this episode, you will hear: The most important leadership shift elite teams are making right now How to eliminate conflict avoidance and create real accountability (without killing trust) Why feeling lonely at the top is a choice—and how to change that, fast Key Quotes "High-performing teams cross the finish line together." - Keith Ferrazzi "Most teams avoid difficult conversations, but true high-performers challenge each other in real time. The result?

It's two exclusive conversations in one episode! During the recent #possible2025 conference in Miami* I conducted two short insider interviews that were long on advertising industry insights. Peter Jones, VP of Revenue at Premion, explained why local advertising is booming, the importance of data-driven strategies, and how omnichannel measurement is revolutionizing campaign attribution Then, Sheila Marmon, Founder and CEO of Mirror Digital discussed the $6.8 trillion buying power of diverse audiences, digital innovation for inclusive marketing, and why brand are best served by connecting with multicultural consumers. Take a listen (or, watch/listen via YouTube ) and you'll understand a couple of powerful market forces reshaping advertising today: the renaissance of local advertising and the still key need for  inclusive audience reach. With local advertising projected to reach $33 billion this year (growing at 16% year-over-year), Peter shares how Premion -- an industry-leading CTV/OTT ad platform with directly-sourced inventory from 125+ premium publishers -- helps advertisers make data-driven decisions that prioritize "outcomes over impressions." Learn also how local and regional advertisers can leverage the same sophisticated targeting and measurement capabilities previously available only to national brands. Did you know they are "TAG Platinum" certified? That, combined with their company approach to business, means all their inventory is brand safe. Peter also teased a pretty impressive case study of a restaurant chain is measuring direct sales impact from their advertising campaigns right off transactions.   In the second segment, Sheila introduces us to the company she runs, "Mirror Digital," which has pioneered connecting brands with diverse audiences across digital platforms for over 13 years. She breaks down the misconception that multicultural audiences are "niche," (um, 43% of the pop is NOT niche!), and their combined $6.8 trillion in buying power – larger than the GDP of any European or Latin American country -- should be pretty enticing to ANY brand advertiser! Oh, and remember, that other little "niche," WOMEN, drive 80% of household purchasing decisions. It might be why Mirror Digital has worked with major brands like General Motors, Verizon, and Amazon. (I did a great interview back in 2021 with Cadillac CMO Melissa Grady Dias and we talked a little more about their approach to inclusivity, which is DEFINITELY still important, despite our political climate.)  Here are some of the key moments: [00:00:29] Peter Jones introduces Premion's focus on local markets and helping regional agencies with scaled buying power [00:01:19] Why local advertising is having its moment and impressive projections for 2025 [00:03:05] The three key factors advertisers need today: inventory, data, and measurement [00:09:28] Jones' mantra of "outcomes over impressions" in advertising strategy [00:11:07] How a restaurant chain measures direct sales transactions from Premion advertising [00:14:52] Sheila Marmon on Mirror Digital's mission of connecting brands with inclusive audiences [00:15:22] Why diverse audiences aren't "niche" (and their $6T (yes, a "T") in  buying power) Follow, Connect & Share the Love Connect with Peter Jones: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonespeter/  and visit Premion: https://premion.com/ Learn about Mirror Digital and Sheila Marmon: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sheila-marmon-0398074/ Connect with E.B.

De wonderen zijn de wereld nog niet uit. Sloot Trump gisteren ineens een handelsdeal met de Britten, dit weekend gaat 'ie heel ver voor een deal met de Chinezen. Zo ver zelfs dat 'ie bereid is de tarieven drastisch te verlagen.Ze staan er in China zelf ook van te kijken. Waarom wil Trump zo graag? We bespreken het deze aflevering. Dan hoor je ook waarom China het (ondanks die handelsoorlog) extreem veel exporteert. Sterker nog: de binnenlandse vraag valt nauwelijks terug. Verder vertellen we je over BP. Het aandeel zit in een diep dal en dat zet concurrenten aan het denken. Die zijn allemaal aan het berekenen of zij de Britse oliereus willen overnemen. Shell zegt dat het ze niet waard is, maar is dat ook echt zo? We hebben het ook over de Duitse beurs. Beleggers daar hebben een nieuwe bondskanselier en die zal dit succes vast willen claimen: de DAX-index tikt namelijk een nieuw record aan. En Elon Musk vindt de 260.000 ontslagen die hij bij de Amerikaanse overheid regelde nog niet genoeg. Hij heeft een stukje software ontwikkeld die zijn taken daar kan overnemen. En we blikken terug op de week waarin Jelle eindelijk analisten meekreeg in zijn enthousiasme over Disney. Ook een beursweek waarin Ahold zei geen last te hebben van de handelsoorlog. En die waarin de eerste deal in die oorlog gesloten werd.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The U.S. job market shows resilience with the addition of 177,000 payrolls in April, despite a slight decline in IT roles as tech professionals exit the field. The unemployment rate remains low at 4.2 percent, but the IT sector has seen significant job losses, with over 10,600 positions cut in April alone. This trend is attributed to a cautious hiring environment influenced by increasing automation and economic policies, leading many IT professionals to leave the sector altogether. While demand for artificial intelligence roles is surging, the overall tech job market is struggling, raising concerns about the long-term implications of ongoing trade tensions and tariff impacts.Major companies like General Motors and Delta Airlines have withdrawn their financial forecasts, signaling potential freezes in capital and operational spending, including IT initiatives. This shift in economic sentiment is prompting clients to focus on resilience and efficiency, leading IT service providers to rethink their offerings. Instead of traditional services, there is a growing need for solutions that address risk management and operational impacts. IT services firms are encouraged to deepen their understanding of client businesses and tailor their services accordingly to become trusted partners.Earnings reports from tech giants such as Amazon, Microsoft, and Meta indicate a continued investment in data centers and AI infrastructure, despite rising costs due to tariffs. Microsoft reported a significant increase in capital expenditure and cloud revenue, while Google Cloud also experienced substantial growth. However, companies like IBM and Intel are facing challenges, with declining stock prices and weak forecasts. The overall landscape suggests that while hyperscalers are investing heavily, the economic conditions are creating a complex environment for IT service providers.The Global Technology Industry Association has appointed Dan Wensley as its new CEO, a move seen as strategic for the organization as it seeks to innovate and expand its service offerings. Wensley's extensive experience in the managed services space positions him well to address the needs of IT service providers. However, there are concerns that the association must avoid becoming merely a platform for vendor messaging and instead focus on delivering unique value to the industry. The challenges ahead will require tangible wins to build trust and relevance among smaller and mid-sized IT service firms. Four things to know today 00:00 U.S. Adds Jobs in April, But IT Sector Shrinks as Tariff Pressure and Automation Reshape Hiring05:16 Big Tech Earnings Show AI Spend Is Surging—But Tariffs and Cost Pressures Loom10:20 Tariffs Reshape Tech Landscape: Cloud Thrives While SMBs and Traditional IT Struggle13:13 New GTIA CEO Dan Wensley Has a Big Job: Make It Matter  Supported by: https://cometbackup.com/?utm_source=mspradio&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=sponsorship https://www.huntress.com/mspradio/ All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

Anthony Scala, owner of City Chevy Grayslake, sits down with Dave today. They dive into Anthony's rich family history in the car business and his journey from a porter to a dealership owner. Anthony shares his commitment to community involvement, emphasizing the importance of building genuine relationships and creating a welcoming atmosphere at City Chevy. They discuss the challenges of rebuilding trust within the community and the dealership's focus on customer service. The episode wraps up with playful insights into Anthony's personal life and his passion for fostering a positive work environment. Discovering Grayslake: A Deep Dive into Anthony Scala's Journey and Insights on the Car Business In this episode of "Discovering Grayslake," host Tony sits down with Anthony Scala, the owner of City Chevy, at Agora, a co-working space in Grayslake. The conversation is rich with insights into Anthony's background in the automotive industry, his family's legacy, and his journey to becoming a dealership owner. This blog post will break down the key themes discussed in the episode, offering actionable advice and detailed explanations to guide listeners and readers alike. Family Legacy and Early Experiences The Scala Family Legacy Anthony Scala's journey in the car business is deeply rooted in his family's history. His grandfather owned a dealership in the late 70s and early 80s, and his father continued the legacy by running the Lynch Auto Group in Chicago. Growing up in this environment, Anthony was naturally drawn to the car industry, although he admits that no child dreams of becoming a car dealer. Lessons from a Strict Upbringing Anthony shares a personal story about his upbringing, highlighting the strict parenting style of his father. As the oldest of five siblings, he felt the pressure of being the firstborn. He recalls how his father monitored his every move, which he initially resented but later came to appreciate. Anthony reflects on how his father's high expectations and support shaped him, even when he made poor choices as a teenager. This strict yet supportive environment instilled in him the values of hard work and determination. The Importance of Community Involvement Building Relationships with Customers Anthony emphasizes that building relationships with customers is crucial. He believes that understanding the local demographic is essential for tailoring services and marketing strategies. Each of the five dealerships he operates caters to different communities, and he recognizes that what works in one area may not be effective in another. This adaptability is key to his success. Community Engagement Tony expresses gratitude for City Chevy's community involvement, highlighting the dealership's sponsorship of local events. Anthony shares that they have an even more robust schedule of community activities planned for the upcoming spring and summer, emphasizing the importance of being an active participant in the community. This commitment to community engagement helps build trust and fosters long-term relationships with customers. Customer Service Philosophy Creating a Positive Experience Anthony explains that while data and demographics inform marketing strategies, the real focus should be on personal interactions. He believes that if a customer doesn't feel a connection with the staff, they are unlikely to make a purchase or return for service. This philosophy drives the hiring and training processes at City Chevy, where he aims to foster a culture of respect and teamwork. The Role of Authenticity Scala emphasizes the importance of creating a welcoming atmosphere at his dealership. He believes that the first impression is crucial, and he encourages his employees to assess the "vibe" of the store each day. According to him, the dealership has a significantly more positive energy, characterized by friendly and genuine staff. He acknowledges that while some aspects of customer service can be faked, the authenticity and kindness of the team are what truly matter. Challenges and Rebuilding Trust Overcoming Past Management Issues Anthony acknowledges that there were trust issues within the community due to past management practices. To address this, he has worked diligently to rebuild relationships and establish a reputation for integrity and transparency. Anthony shares anecdotes about how he has engaged with the community, from sponsoring local events to participating in charity initiatives, all aimed at demonstrating his commitment to Grayslake. Turning Around Underperforming Stores Scala shares his track record of revitalizing underperforming dealerships. He has successfully turned around every store he has purchased, and he is currently in the process of doing the same with City Chevy. He mentions that General Motors views his dealership as a model for year-over-year growth, even if the progress is gradual. Scala recognizes that his dealership may not be the right fit for everyone, as they cater to logical and rational buyers. Personal Insights and Competitive Nature Lessons from Sports Anthony reveals his competitive nature, which he attributes to his background in sports, particularly basketball. He recounts a pivotal moment during his college years when he realized he needed to improve physically to compete with more experienced players. This experience taught him the value of hard work and determination, lessons he applies to his business today. He believes that the same principles of teamwork and respect he learned on the court are essential in the workplace. Building a Positive Work Environment Tony and Anthony delve into the importance of creating a positive work environment at the dealership. Anthony stresses that every employee, regardless of their position, deserves respect. He shares a personal anecdote about how witnessing disrespect among employees triggers a strong reaction from him. He believes that fostering a culture of mutual respect not only benefits employees but also enhances the customer experience. The Role of Data in Business Balancing Data and Personal Interactions The conversation also highlights Anthony's analytical approach to business. He enjoys tracking metrics and using data to inform decisions, but he emphasizes that numbers alone do not drive success. Understanding people and building relationships are equally important. He explains that while data can guide marketing efforts, the real magic happens when employees connect with customers on a personal level. Future Aspirations and Community Engagement Expanding Community Efforts As the episode draws to a close, Anthony shares his aspirations for the future of City Chevy and his ongoing commitment to the Grayslake community. He envisions expanding community engagement efforts and continuing to build a dealership that reflects the values of respect, integrity, and teamwork. He believes that by investing in relationships, both with customers and employees, he can create a thriving business that positively impacts the community. Conclusion In this engaging conversation, Tony and Anthony explore the intersection of business, community, and personal growth. Anthony Scala's journey from a strict upbringing to a successful dealership owner illustrates the importance of resilience, hard work, and the power of relationships. The episode serves as a reminder that success in business is not just about numbers; it's about the people behind the numbers and the connections forged along the way. Key Takeaways: Community Involvement**: Building relationships with local customers is essential for long-term success. Customer Service**: Authenticity and personal interactions are crucial for creating a positive customer experience. Work Environment**: Fostering a culture of respect and teamwork benefits both employees and customers. Data and Personal Touch**: Balancing data-driven decisions with personal interactions leads to better business outcomes. By focusing on these principles, Anthony Scala has successfully turned around underperforming dealerships and built a thriving business that positively impacts the Grayslake community. His story is a testament to the power of hard work, determination, and the importance of building genuine relationships in business.
