MOLSHEIM (France): Bugatti has suspended production of its vehicles such as the Chiron and Divo in Molsheim. Nevertheless, a large number of employees are still working – from home.
Bugatti president Stephan Winkelmann is managing the French ultra luxury hyper sports automaker from his home in Strasbourg, France.
"Thanks to digital processes and communication channels, we are still able to work and keep on developing our extraordinary hyper sports cars,” explains Winkelmann.
His morning is typically spent with catching up on emails, a Skype meeting with Bugatti’s senior management team, and conference calls with various departments such as development, sales, design and marketing.
The afternoon is usually spent with more checking of emails, and phone conferences with Bugatti’s product committee, regarding the development of current and future products.
In the evening, Winkelmann, a fitness enthusiast, would sweat it out with a run.
"Since I currently cannot train at the gym or in the pool, I go running for an hour in the early evening and break up my run with a few exercises. This improves my endurance and health, I enjoy it and it gives me time to review the day without my smartphone or computer. This period of meditation also recharges my batteries.”
