He highlights how companies often offer utility cars as part of salary packages without assessing true necessity, reinforcing outdated values. Patricio argues that this model is neither efficient nor eco-friendly and underscores the importance of leadership in driving this change. As markets evolve, particularly in Portugal and Spain, companies are beginning to adopt more sustainable practices, moving toward shared mobility. This shift not only benefits individual users but also enhances team management and communication within organizations. According to Sergio Patricio, embracing these changes can significantly impact personal and corporate mobility.
