Penske Corporation President and Team Penske Executive Vice President Bud Denker joins the Dealer Driven podcast to explore the “common thread” connecting elite racing teams and high-performing dealerships.
Denker shares how communication, trust, precision and accountability drive success everywhere from the pit lane to the service lane. He also explains why losing can be an invaluable teacher.
