Yesterday, I had the honour of standing as the voice of the Canadian Truck Operators Association at the vibrant Truck World Show held at The International Convention Centre in Mississauga. The event was a hub of inspiration as industry leaders showcased their dedication and innovation, and I couldn't help but swell with pride as I witnessed the extraordinary contributions of the South Asian community in shaping the North American supply chain. Among the highlights were the best practices exemplified by JB Rand Express and SPS Logistics. These companies are not only driving efficiency in logistics but also investing heavily in their most valuable asset – their employees. It was inspiring to learn about their commitment to continuous upskilling through soft skills and leadership training initiatives. In particular, I was struck by the visionary leadership of Ms. Paramjit Kajla and Mr. Bob Randhawa. Their shared vision to elevate human capital within the industry is not just admirable but essential for sustainable growth. Collaborating with such forward-thinkers to work together to foster a culture of learning and innovation, is an honor. Together, we're not just shaping the future of logistics; we're investing in the development and empowerment of our workforce. Here's to continued collaboration and the pursuit of excellence in employee engagement and enrichment! #TruckShow #Logistics #SupplyChain #EmployeeDevelopment #Leadership #Innovation #Collaboration

The conversations this hound has overheard. He learned from one of the best today, CLARK'S MARKET, INC Chief Operations Officer Jim Clapp. His key takeaways: 1. If you are kinder than necessary, you won't regret how you behaved. 2. If you do what's right for the people, you will always be doing what is right for the business. 3. If you do what's easy instead of what's right, you'll regret it 100% of the time. 4. Grab the stray cart when you're walking into the store. EVERYTHING is YOUR job if you notice it needs to be done. #lessonsinleadership #clarksmarket #backtobasics

Paige's comments really resonate with me especially this .."

The best HR leaders are businesspeople first, with an expertise in HR.” Learn more: https://lnkd.in/eSDFg_a9
