Some time ago I was not sure I liked Ferdinand Piech but now I will gladly concede I love him.
Not only is he proving to be a fantastic engineer who built some of the fastest racing cars in the history of automobiles (remember the unbeatable Posche 908 and 917 of the late 60s and early 70s) but also an astute businessman with a vision and a unique ability to motivate people and lead companies.
However, the deep ground of my admiration is the supersonic speed at which he is capable of making (wise) decisions, of moving a giant like the VW Group and yet keep his feet on the ground to put a human touch in his relations (not always easy) with the people who work for him.
