Rising Stars is an annual program honoring automotive executives in middle and upper management in all disciplines, across Europe, together with the companies who are nurturing that future leadership talent.
The nomination period for the 2019 Rising Stars program runs October 1 through December 31, 2018.
The executives who are this year’s Eurostars have stood out from their rivals by exceeding expectations. Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi CEO Carlos Ghosn turned his alliance into the world’s largest automaker, passing Volkswagen Group in global sales. Skoda CEO Bernhard Maier led the Czech automaker to a 2017 profit margin that even exceeded Audi, its sister brand and VW Group’s traditional earnings powerhouse.
