Thierry Charvet's workplace does not look like the office of a top manager. Renault's Board Member for Industry, Quality and Supply Chain doesn't need a prestigious desk, designer furniture or family photos in silver frames. A large conference table and screens several meters wide on the walls are enough. The main screen shows a world map with 20 Renault plants, with five small dots under each location. Green, yellow or red. That's all it takes to see if there's a problem somewhere.
