Show Notes

Jay and Robert get right into things by reviewing Jay's earliest memories of cars (1:05) and how his unique education led him to Ford (3:57). Then Robert pivots to discuss the fifteen years that Jay spent working for Ford Motor Company and how the company's ethos continues to set the bar for other companies (5:45), an ethos that Jay was excited to discover with Embraer (8:28).

After a short break, Robert asks Jay to detail his process for brining automotive interior design to private jets, first at Gulf Stream and then at Embraer (13:32). Then Jay explains how Embraer started the private jet design revolution by hiring BMW DesignWorks and the importance of cross-industry development even when it's all brought in-house (18:30). Finally, Robert asks Jay to detail some of this best designs that were never actually made (24:33) before concluding with some musings from Jay on the importance of employers giving employees more creative freedom to realize untapped potential (29:35).
