“I had worked within the automotive industry in a management and consulting capacity and had never really had the time to be proactive about my career. It all just happened for me. Then I was unexpectedly made redundant during the recession and I had no idea what I was going to do next. Then I received an invitation from Appleton Greene to apply for a position as a Learning Provider. It occurred to me that I was indeed a people person and actually enjoyed mentoring and the thought of being independent, but still having something tangible to offer clients, really appealed to me. Having the support of Appleton Greene and not having to develop business for myself also helped to provide me with the confidence to have a go. I guess it was just the right time in my life to do this, because I thoroughly enjoyed the program development process. The quality of support and assistance was excellent and there is structure in everything that Appleton Greene does. It gave me the confidence to put everything into developing my own programs and my own practice and I don’t regret it for a moment.”

The automotive industry is a wide range of companies and organizations involved in the design, development, manufacture, marketing, and selling of motor vehicles. It is one of the world’s most important economic sectors by revenue. The automotive industry does not include industries dedicated to the maintenance of automobiles following delivery to the end-user, such as automobile repair shops and motor fuel filling stations. Around the world, there are about 806 million cars and light trucks on the road, consuming over 260 billion US gallons of gasoline and diesel fuel yearly. The automobile is a primary mode of transportation for many developed economies. The Detroit branch of Boston Consulting Group predicts that, one-third of world demand will be in the four BRIC markets (Brazil, Russia, India and China). Other potentially powerful automotive markets are Iran and Indonesia. Emerging auto markets already buy more cars than established markets. According to a J.D. Power study, emerging markets accounted for 51 percent of the global light-vehicle sales. The study expects this trend to accelerate.

“Due to globalization, many of our departmental teams are located in a number of different geographical locations worldwide, it is therefore imperative that processes are implemented on a global scale to incorporate corporate strategy. The fact that Appleton Greene has trainers and consultants internationally, with specific geographical and industry knowledge is a bonus because this helps them to facilitate international teams and groups to achieve common goals.”
