Fleet Managers' Solutions to Today’s Challenges – Video Series Part Three

 

1 min to read


TORRANCE, CA - At the 2011 Government Fleet Expo and Conference in San Diego, Calif. this year, one of the sessions involved fleet managers gathering into groups to solve specific challenges and then present that challenge to everyone attending the session. Each table’s group nominated someone to present their solution. The Government Fleet magazine staff took a number of individuals nominated to present solutions aside after the session and recorded them on video.

In the our third series of videos, shown below, you can see fleet managers’ solutions to a number of challenges that today’s public sector fleet manager faces.

In case you missed the first two parts in our series, you can view them here:
