The first day of the NAFA 2020 Institute & Expo will feature a session dedicated to the pit falls that fleet professionals may experience.
The session will begin at 2:15 p.m. on April 6 and will include fleet professionals talking about issues that range from something like a career change up to their fleet “horror stories.”
The session will feature Adam Seifert, CAFM, supervisor – Business Intelligence and Analytics at ARI; Amy McAdams, CAFM, fleet manager at Farmer Brothers; and Beth Woods, Fleet Manager at MISTRAS Group, Inc. Peter Nogalo, marketing manager at ARI, will moderate the session.
The speakers will talk about the challenges they have faced at each stage of their career. They will also share the right and wrong questions to ask suppliers and stakeholders around key fleet functions and deliverables.
Ultimately, the panel will leverage their experience to teach fellow fleet professional attendees how to navigate the changes in fleet that impact their career.
