Jeff Shields, Manager of Field Operations, Maven and Urban Active, General Motors, has been confirmed as a speaker at Autonomous Car Detroit.
Jeff Shields has been working in the car sharing industry for nearly ten years, back when most people thought of car sharing as lending a friend their vehicle.
Today, he is leading Maven’s field operations from company headquarters in Warren, Michigan. Previously, he led Maven’s operations on the West Coast as the company ramped up Maven City service in San Francisco, Los Angeles and Denver, as well as Maven Gig in San Diego and Phoenix. Jeff was responsible for overseeing each city’s regional team, developing the go-to-market strategies, pursuing expansion opportunities, building awareness, optimizing the user experience and much more.
Jeff has spent plenty of time on the streets talking to people, investigating traffic patterns and gaining deep knowledge of the cities where Maven operates. He preaches that GPS services, while convenient, are not a viable substitute for experiencing a location in person.
Jeff sees Maven as a lifestyle brand with options designed to meet the needs of multiple different demographics. He cherishes that the company has a startup feel, along with the firepower to execute aggressively.
