Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

You Don't Need a Title to Be a Mentor
Q: What advice would you give to someone seeking mentorship or aiming to become a mentor themselves?
Lisa Thompson and Josh stress being intentional, brave, and open to feedback; mentors should push for growth, not comfort, while mentees should actively seek development opportunities and be willing to show what they've accomplished.
You Don't Need a Title to Be a Mentor
Q: What makes mentorship different when you mentor a person versus mentoring a role?
Josh Hannaberry explains that mentoring a person encompasses character and long-term growth beyond job duties, while mentoring a role focuses on specific skills within work hours; both are valuable but personal development tends to have longer-lasting impact.
You Don't Need a Title to Be a Mentor
Q: Tell us about your journey into the industry and how mentorship played a role.
Brent Bell describes growing up around trucks, experiencing early hands-on training, and later becoming a trainer and mentor who emphasizes safety, patience, and gradual skill-building for new drivers.
Fairway Forecast
Q: What is one thing people underestimate about the industry?
The operational costs of running a fleet, including diesel prices and equipment purchase costs, are often underestimated and need deeper analysis before entry.
Fairway Forecast
Q: What is a trend that will disappear in the next 12 months?
Driver Inc. arrangements should fade as the industry moves toward fairer and more transparent labor practices.
