Description

J.D. Power has nearly 80% name recognition for its awards, but its data business is the real hidden gem. In this episode, Thoma Bravo Managing Partner Scott Crabill sits down with J.D. Power’s CEO David Habiger to discuss how the company is bringing together the fragmented auto industry, and how Thoma Bravo has partnered with J.D. Power on acquisition strategy, merging two world-class companies, and flattening organizational structure. 

The conversation then broadens to include what it was like to navigate a merger during a global pandemic and how to put the right people in the right leadership positions. You’ll also hear insights on the latest auto trends, including electric and autonomous vehicles, connected cars, and shifting retail models.
