Zitat des Tages von Akio Toyoda:
Trouble results when the speed of growth exceeds the speed of nurturing human resources. To use the analogy of growth rings in a tree, when unusually rapid growth caused the rings to grow abnormally thick, the tree trunk weakens and is easily broken.
I respect my father as a father, but I also respect him as an honorable chairman.
Everyone says Toyota is the best company in the world, but the customer doesn't care about the world. They care if we are the best in town, or not. That's what I want to be.
When consumers purchase a Toyota, they are not simply purchasing a car, truck or van. They are placing their trust in our company.
I am at the top of Toyota and drive cars myself. I was also born with this name.
After I joined Toyota, there was a period when I drove more than 200 cars in one year - different types, other companies' cars. I want to be able to tell what distinguishes one car from the next.
