Possumato, Founder and CEO of DriveItAway. "Adding Rush Doshi to our team as an advisor, is truly the next stage of our national business expansion to lead the charge in getting our message to all employers throughout the nation that our vehicle ownership enablement program dramatically increases employee recruitment and retention results, while clearly and dramatically fulfilling social and sustainability goals."

"I most recently have reviewed extensive data on the problems a lack of personal transportation has on the success companies of hiring and retaining entry level employees throughout the US, and helped pilot the unique DriveItAway subscription to ownership program to solve this problem, in a way that not only substantially increased employer recruitment and retention, but also literally changes lives in a positive way," says Rush Doshi, now Strategic Advisor at DriveItAway. "I joined the DriveItAway team, as I think the need and timing is right to expand this solution dramatically for all companies that want greater success in employee recruitment and retention and are focused on tangible and measurable ESG goals. As DriveItAway now enables credit or down payment challenged employees the ability to drive to buy new EV vehicles, we squarely achieve both the "E" and "S" in auditable ESG achievements."
