The recent headlines with the news of leadership changes at two of the nation’s largest trucking and logistics companies helped to place the topic of succession planning for your trucking company into the spotlight. In this episode, podcast host Doug Grawe addresses the key questions that trucking companies need to ask when building a succession plan for the business. As Doug notes, one of the first steps is figuring out what the next five, seven or 10 years will look like for your company. Doug also discusses identifying and building a path for future leaders in your company. In addition, Doug spends some time talking about family-owned businesses and succession considerations for the next generation of leadership. Doug is joined on this edition by trucking industry veteran Greg Thompson, the Executive Producer of PodWheels who has 25 years of experience in corporate communications.
