The Union would like to invite Mr. Kumabe to join the ongoing conversation about the issues and challenges that are facing Woven's workforce.
As Mr. Kumabe has mentioned, one of the keys to Woven by Toyota’s success is in leveraging our incredible talent. We at Woven Union are excited to share both our concerns and ideas with the new leadership team to help make Woven by Toyota a place where world-class talent can enjoy their work while being enabled and inspired to deliver safe, intelligent, human-centered mobility for all.
To achieve that, as before, it is necessary to establish a constant and productive dialogue between employees and our leadership to make sure we have our voices heard. We are hopeful that such dialogue can be achieved and we will be able to drive Woven toward success together.
