WIN FROM WITHIN

At Bozard, we recognize that our team members are our greatest strength, and their success drives our success. Bozard University is dedicated to fostering their growth and development to ensure a thriving future for all.

OUR MISSION

Bozard University is an organizational resource that provides all team members with learning and development opportunities that align with the INSPIRE tenants and encourages each individual to continue growing, both professionally and personally, as they navigate their journey with Bozard Ford Lincoln and beyond.

DEVELOPMENT
> TRAINING

For decades, typical car dealership training consisted of step-by-step instructions provided by a stranger and scripts to memorize that someone wrote years before. This method made one big assumption —that all employees learn the same way. Although the word development may not seem much different than training, Bozard University is setting out to prove that it is. Development means growth and advancement.

The pursuit of development allows those seeking it to begin at different stages of their journey. This gives them the opportunity to absorb information and ideas in ways that are best for their learning style, in order to become their most authentic and unique self. Development meets everyone where they are and moves them forward at their own pace. The outcome is the Best Team on the Planet and a whole lot of people chasing (and reaching) their dreams!

DRIVEN TO INSPIRE

NNOVATE:

Innovation is the key to distinguishing ourselves as leaders as opposed to followers. We will push ourselves to explore new technologies and create leading-edge approaches to bring our products and services to market. By doing this, we maintain Bozard Ford Lincoln’s position as a premier company in Northeast Florida and a leader in the automotive industry.

Anything worthy of our efforts is worthy of our best efforts. If we can’t provide a top-notch product and first–class experience in all our endeavors, we will not attempt to deliver that product or service.
