THIS! My heart is so full with this beautiful acknowledgment. When I began writing the posts that later became my book, it was my personal private #therapy. It was a very dark time in my life. Each post was intended to help me focus on what was good, what was positive and what was within my control. In #neuroscience, we know that neurons that fire together, wire together, and the more we search for what is positive and possible the more we see it, and the more we attract it. To see this book being used in workplaces to change #culture, uplift teams, and for personal #wellbeing, is a dream come true for me! #healthandsafety #healthandwellness #copingstrategies

Replacing a driver costs $10K, why won't the companies do more to retain the best asset they have? It is easier to to spend the money to hire and churn than it is to change attitudes and take care of people. Retaining not only saves the driver it saves the company in ways not immediately noticed. A few of those ways are; better driver attitude, better on-time delivery, better care of equipment, better safety scores, and driver referrals.

There seems to be some HEAVY confusion today from [shockingly] very smart people on this platform who want to compare an API rates to index-linked contracts??? 🙃 First of all let's start with definitions: 1) An application programming interface is a way for two or more computer programs to communicate with each other. (literally copied and pasted that from the internet) 2) Real-time rating or dynamic pricing is when a business sets flexible prices for products or services based on current market demands. 3) Index-linked contracts allow shippers and transportation providers to peg their contracted rates to a market benchmark. This is a standard practice in many industries, from energy to agriculture and metals and mining. Midsize and large trucking carriers even do this for fuel, often buying diesel at a price based on wholesale or rack prices that move with the market. But index linking hasn’t been built for trucking procurement due to the lack of timely, comprehensive pricing information that can serve as the basis for a benchmark. FreightWaves changed that with the release of SONAR, the first supply chain data platform with rates built on automated data streams of bookings from transportation management systems rather than payments, which arrive well after the load has moved. Now SONAR serves as the basis for Index-Linked Contracts, which will float with the market and make sure that both sides — shippers and carriers — are getting a fair price. For more info on this, check out the link in the comments! Also, industry leaders, do better.
