Freight Train to Airplane: The Automotive IT Transformation The Auto Industry is a very top heavy, slow moving, traditional business. This is not only reflected in the way that companies develop products, but also in the way that companies support the culture of their workers. I will discuss how one of the largest automotive companies on Earth is transforming themselves from a traditional manufacturing business to a technology company that makes cars, and how they are working to change the culture of their workforce to one driven by empowerment. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs. Some titles, such as Agile-related topics may qualify for other continuing education credits such as SEUs, or CEUs. Each professional development activity yields one PDU for one hour spent engaged in the activity. Some limitations apply and can be found in the Ways to Earn PDUs section that discusses PDU activities and associated policies. Fractions of PDUs may also be reported. The smallest increment of a PDU that can be reported is 0.25. This means that if you spent 15 minutes participating in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.25 PDU. If you spend 30 minutes in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.50 PDU.
