We were intrigued by some of the statistics cited in the GE Capital Fleet Services survey of fleet managers conducted at the recent NAFA I&E. For instance, 35% of the respondents named safety their main concern, but 67% said that the main focus of their companys executive leadership is achieving cost savings. These goals appear to be at cross-purposes, but todays fleet professional has a variety of technology tools to address the dual challenges.
Importantly, we also have access to outstanding industry events that offer educational sessions and networking opportunities to keep our skills up to the minute. Here are a few coming up in the next few months:
