While not losing touch with traditional values, TB sets an example of how to best combine the know-how and the latest developments in the market.

Joost Sunt

Looking back at my 14 years career in Toyota Boshoku Europe, I realize how important is strong company culture and values such us company philosophy, mission & vision. TB-way (8 rules and guidelines which are describing Toyota Boshoku attitude towards, work, team members and society) as well as passion for continuous improvement challenged me to develop myself and grow into several roles. During my time in Purchasing and Production Management Division I experienced how important but also challenging is teamwork when concerning multicultural culture and environment. Today, as HR GM, I contribute to this diverse company culture and I witness how it powers up teamwork and sense of unity.
