It has been almost 20 years since Grupo T21 decided to give visibility to the most influential auto transport companies in Mexico.

Drive is Great is a contribution that began with a focus on the trucking industry to take operators to the next level.
“The plan is ambitious, we want to involve as many companies as possible and recognize the good practices that exist internally, with a methodology developed to distinguish the companies that treat operators best,” explained Osiel Cruz.
For his part, Einar Palomino, CEO of VI Human, explained that the guiding idea of Drive is Great is to give visibility to companies that have a genuine vocation for operators, evaluating 155 factors and collecting 130 pieces of evidence.
“Those of us who make up this community are consolidating a practice that targets the core of the industry’s problem, because this business is about people. With Drive is Great we evaluate four areas in the comprehensive operator system: the ability to develop new talent, the ability to establish models and strategies for retaining operators, the third point is training and finally, the capacity as an employer brand,” said Palomino.
