NOT EVERYONE IS a visionary, and not everyone can lead a formidable Formula 1 team either. Torger Christian ‘Toto’ Wolff would know. From winning his first medal in the 24 Hours Nürburgring to setting up two technology-focused venture capitalist firms, Wolff has dabbled in both motorsport and business. Eventually going on to lead the Mercedes-AMG Petronas Formula 1 Team as its principal, CEO and coowner, Wolff’s career has been nothing short of dynamic, and of course, wildly successful. After all, he is the man behind seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton.
Wolff is also the new face of Bombardier. As brand ambassador, he will be supporting the jet manufacturer’s sustainable innovations, including the Challenger 3500 super-midsized jet and Global 8000 flagship aircraft.
What is it like to be you? Nothing in life is linear, it’s a little bit like a share price; it goes up and down. As long as the trajectory is upwards, you’re on the right path, and that’s a bit of how my life has been with zigzags in both directions. At the core of everything, it’s about defining the right values. The most important is humility – I never have a sense of entitlement. It’s also about keeping loyal, driven and ambitious.
Can you describe yourself in three words? Caring, honest, driven.
