obstacles and bring out the best in yourself and your team. Everyone faces challenges
and every person, organization, company and team will have to overcome negativity
and adversity to define themselves and create their success. Whether you are a leader
looking to build a positive culture, a manager trying to energize and engage your team, or
someone who desires to enhance your productivity and performance, this talk will help
you create more success and enjoy the ride of your life.

since we all share the challenges in getting the perfect order to our receivers each and

and inconsistent. Learn how this process can be structured to result in a consistent
process that minimizes expense and maximizes control while creating benefit for the
shipper, the carrier and the charitable community.
