Webinar - Toyota's secret to standing out in a struggling car market
How does Toyota France stand out in a struggling automotive market thanks to solid foundations built over decades?
Despite a particularly tense context in the automotive sector, Toyota France marked the year 2024 with remarkable growth, significantly consolidating its market share in the territory.
This success is no accident: it results from in-depth work and a culture of excellence patiently built over decades.
Thanks to the rigorous implementation of the Toyota Production System (TPS) and structured management, combining strategic vision and proximity to the field with deep respect for individuals, Toyota has built a model of sustainable performance.
This continuous quest for improvement, driven by the commitment of its teams and guided by an absolute priority — customer satisfaction — constitutes the very core of the company's identity.
In this dynamic, Marris Consulting is organizing a webinar led by Reynald Debaut-Henocque, former Vice President of Toyota France for nearly twenty years.
During this webinar, we will not address the principles already widely covered, such as TPS, quality management, or visual management. Instead, we will highlight less frequently discussed but equally essential dimensions that form the true foundations of this success.
Date: Tuesday 29th of April 2025
Time: from 12:30pm to 1:30pm (CET)
Webinar in French
Free event, registration mandatory
The speakers
Reynald Debaut-Henocque
From 1981 to 1999 he forged a career as Quality Director in equipment manufacturers accompanying the revolution in quality procedures. Its experience has been built not only with European but also North American manufacturers. In 1993, he set up the continuous improvement branch in Europe of the BTR group. In 1999, he joined the Toyota group as Quality Director of TMMF (Toyota Motor Manufacturing France) and succeeded in obtaining the 1st Warranty Awards when the Yaris “made in France” was launched.
He then broadened his horizons by occupying the positions of Production Director then Supply Chain Director and participated in the success of an industrial site which took up the challenge of producing B-segment vehicles in France, more than 3 million in 20 years. As Vice-President of Production, he then prepared the site to produce 3 million vehicles in 10 years. He was one of the key players in the success of Toyota Motor Manufacturing France.
