In this episode of 3 Key Insights, Sanjiv Yajnik sits down with Vikram Mansharamani—a world-renowned "global generalist" and former Harvard/Yale professor—to reveal the unconventional forces that will define the next decade of automotive retail. While the industry is fixated on short-term interest rates, Vikram explains why deflation and surging AI productivity are the real "icebergs" on the horizon.
From why frozen pizza sales are a better economic indicator than the news, to how GLP-1 drugs are changing consumer impulsivity, Vikram shares how "connecting the dots" can help dealers turn global uncertainty into a local competitive advantage.
