Clear communication can make or break your fleet’s success. Especially when you spot a problem.
Your job as a fleet manager isn’t to fix all the problems. It is to communicate them clearly and empower people on your team to seek solutions. If you fail to do that, they can’t rise to the occasion.
On this week’s episode of the Fleet Success Show, Josh shares a recent experience with his fellow leadership team at RTA. It started with a lack of clarity that triggered some frustrations and ended with everyone stepping up to co-create solutions.
If you’re challenging yourself to be a better fleet leader, don’t miss this episode for some inspirational advice.

Do you ever have to review work orders to make sure they were entered correctly?
Or check PM schedules to see who’s overdue?
Or lose hours a day to all the other in-the-weeds tasks that fleet managers are in charge of?
You’re not alone. Lots of fleet managers struggle to make progress on big initiatives because so much of their time is spent putting out fires.
But every time you say yes to one thing, you say no to something else. And those “no’s” come with a cost.
On this week’s episode of the Fleet Success Show, Josh and Marc talk about the importance of strategic vs. tactical fleet management. Listen in as they explain what opportunities you’re losing out on when you get bogged down with day-to-day tasks and share a powerful analogy to help you get more done with the resources you have.

Next to the people working in your operation, your maintenance facility is really the most important piece of your fleet. A well-planned shop will make a world of difference in productivity levels, employee experience, and customer satisfaction.
According to architectural and design leader, Norman Barrientos, fleet maintenance practices have changed more in the last five years than in the previous 30. Legacy shops no longer support the needs of a modern fleet.
Norman has designed over 100 fleet facilities. This week, he sat down with Tony Yankovic to explain exactly how fleet maintenance facilities of the future need to be structured. He covers everything from bays built for electric vehicles to clean rooms for robotic technology.
If a new fleet facility is in your future—whether you're in the dreaming or planning stage—tune in for Norman's expert advice.
