Half the companies that operate vehicle fleets still try to manage them alone…and that gap is reshaping an entire industry.
Matthew Andrade sits down with Laura Dottori-Attanasio, President and CEO of Element Fleet Management, the world's largest pure-play automotive fleet manager.
As electrification, connected vehicles, and shifting client expectations reshape fleet strategy, Dottori-Attanasio brings a banker's risk discipline to a business in transformation.
