Valery Muyard: Respect and trust steers an organization

eading the company that defines driver safety, Valery Muyard continuously adapts and at the same time puts his trust in the hands of others.

Valery Muyard, president director of Volvo Group Indonesia, has spent most of his professional life in different countries, across three continents, making him and his family open to diverse cultures. His vast experiences and involvement with people from various nations have helped him get to know and understand characters from different backgrounds. He has been with the company for 15 years, and says that Volvo’s core values are the company’s indispensable strength.

“The first core value of Volvo is respect for the individual. The company believes that everybody has the right to their point of view and to discuss ideas. The others are more linked to the way the company performs: safety, quality and environmental care,” he said.

Today in Indonesia, Volvo, one of the biggest heavy vehicle producers in the world, is focusing more on marketing its trucks and other heavy vehicles. But, Muyard stated that the company’s core values applied across the board, so, Volvo heavy vehicles also put safety to the fore, along with quality and care about environmental issues. “This is part of the culture in Sweden, where green technology and products are very important.”

Muyard sees Indonesian customers as very demanding, expecting quality services and very good products. “So it is a very challenging, but promising market,” the 45-year-old French national said about the country he has been posted in since June of this year. - See more at: http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2015/12/21/valery-muyard-respect-and-trust-steers-organization.html#sthash.ax9yYM9L.dpuf
