About this episode

From AI-powered lead tools to connected vehicle data and digital retailing platforms, technology is transforming the automotive industry—fast. But with every new advancement comes potential pitfalls: data security risks, integration breakdowns, and wasted investments in tools that don’t deliver.

In this episode, we speak with John Acosta, CEO of VTech Dealer IT to help executives navigating this evolving landscape. How can you embrace innovation without opening the door to chaos? How do you ensure your tech stack supports your people—not replaces them? And how can you stay ahead without overextending your resources?

This episode will give you tactical insights to lead with confidence, reduce risk, and turn technology into a competitive advantage—not a liability.
