Course objectives/aims

Do you have a succession plan or CPD programme in place for your transport manager and planners? Good succession planning protects your business in the event of a key member’s retirement or untimely departure. Not only does it mean the business is prepared, it also gives employees a direction and goal to work towards. If employees know you are investing in their training and development within the company, then they will more likely buy into and commit to the long-term business objectives.
