Manager of External Affairs and Communications, Toyota

>> My name is Javier Marino, and I am manager of external affairs and communications for Toyota Motor Corporation. I am responsible for media relations, diversity and inclusion, government affairs, and community relations for Toyota. I'm working on establishing a framework and a strategy for Toyota's public presence in that region. On any given day, I may be working with my team and brainstorming for what our strategy should be for community relations. The next day, I may be on a plane to New York to meet with investors, and the following day, I may be in California at a concert with Ricky Martin or some other celebrity to thank our customers for their loyalty to the Toyota brand and for their support, and so when you're living in such a fast-paced environment, and you're given the opportunity to travel the world, whether it's Argentina, Brazil, Venezuela, Mexico and then to come back to your home base and work with a terrific group of professionals that are serious about their job and that want to see the company do well, it makes your life a lot easier.
