What can you do to make positive changes in your carrier? How do you take feedback from your drivers and implement it? What are you doing to communicate with your drivers? How often are you communicating? How are you doing that communication?\\xa0

Welcome back to Recruit and Retain, Trucking Edition. This week we are talking to Max Farrell,\\xa0

CEO at WorkHound, the company giving a megaphone to frontline workers.\\xa0

\\u201cIf you haven\'t looked at WorkHound in the past, WorkHound is a platform all about getting driver feedback, so that it can be actionable for a carrier.\\u201d

So if you\\u2019re concerned about how current events are impacting your drivers, and what kind of feedback you\\u2019re receiving from them, as well as what type of leadership is being displayed in the trucking industry right now, you\\u2019ve come to the right place.\\xa0

\\u201cI think now is a perfect time to be scoping out how do we become a better version of ourselves. We can either operate in fear and let the fear take us and not do anything productive, or we can just say, \\u2018how do we come out of this a better version of ourselves?\\u2019 I prefer the latter.\\u201d

  • How WorkHound can help your business
