Understanding what your drivers are experiencing and how they feel about their jobs is critical to keeping them happy. Happy drivers tend to stay put. This episode is about the importance of opening up communication channels with your drivers – and keeping them open. This episode of HDT Talks Trucking is sponsored by Double Coin. Automated dispatch systems may be more efficient than direct two-way conversations, but they make the transaction impersonal. A few lines of text on a screen offer few clues about how the other party is feeling. The driver might be happy today, but ready to head for the door tomorrow. How will you ever know if you never actually talk to them?  In this episode, Max Farrell, the CEO of Workhound, joins HDT's Jim Park to discuss the importance of communication and keeping channels open to employees, including: Creating a Real-Time Feedback Loop Between Workers and the Company Why Praise is Critical Opening Up Communication Channels Identifying Micro Issues for Macro Changes Driver Feedback and Troublesome Customers Why Resolving Issues Pays Dividends Honest Feedback: Gift or Insult?

It's easy enough to buy a battery-electric truck, but fleets are being forced to wait up to two years for their chargers. Site design, permitting, and construction take forever. Matt Horton, CEO of Voltera Power, talks to Jim Park on HDT Talks Trucking on how fleets can navigate these waters. Voltera develops charging facilities for light, medium and heavy vehicles. Horton says the upfront costs of developing charging facilities are sidelining some fleets. Others just don't have the resources to wade through the bureaucratic swamp and get shovels in the ground. Horton discusses the challenges, and offers advice on how to get your BEV up and running as quickly as possible: Why are we pushing so hard to electrify right now? Why is infrastructure such a problem? Charging deserts Getting power to the wheels Is grid capacity allocated on a first come, first served basis? How much energy is 5 megawatts? Is the cost of power, including infrastructure, comparable to diesel? How far off is a true public charging network?

The driver in the Lakewood, Colo. crash, Rogel Aguilera-Mederos, paid a stiff price for his actions on the afternoon of April 25, 2019. It would be easy to argue that the crash was entirely his fault, but my guest, Accident Plan founder and CEO, Brendan Dawson, says the carrier and the broker he was working for at the time bear some responsibility for not ensuring he was trained to drive in mountainous terrain. Would training have prevented that crash? Could more comprehensive training prevent other crashes?

Decades will pass before diesel disappears from our vocabulary. Despite what you may have read on the internet, no single alternative energy source will dominate the way diesel fuel has for generations.

To meet the first round of GHG reduction targets, these trucks will be fitted mostly with existing fuel-saving technology; aero devices, low-rolling resistance tires, etc. To meet the 2024 and 2027 targets, truck makers may need to get a bit more aggressive in their use of advanced technologies.

Driverless trucks are still a few years off when you talk about the long-haul sector, but they are already in play on other markets, such as drayage and terminal tractors. We are making real progress toward a time when self-driving trucks become commonplace, but there are still lots of questions: Which applications does early adoption make the most sense? How will the regulators make rules regarding such complex technology? Are they really a solution to the driver shortage? Richard Bishop of Bishop Consulting is an automated vehicle industry analyst, and he has been a watcher and player in this space since the early 1990s. He joins Jim Park in this episode to shine the light on this mysterious technology.

There have long been allegations of employee misclassification in the trucking industry, especially among companies that abuse the lease-purchase contractor model. But aside from those examples, there is ample case law around the country suggesting any subcontractor performing work that is ostensibly the same as the contracting entity must be declared an employee. That calls into question this industry's relationships with its owner-operators. In this episode, Jim Park talks about the potential impact of AB-5 and other efforts to end employee misclassification with HDT editor-in-chief, Deborah Lockridge. They are joined by Julie Gutman Dickinson, California local counsel to the Teamsters Union Port Division, Fred Potter, President of Teamsters Union Local No. 469 in Hazlet, New Jersey, and an International Vice-President At-Large for the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, and Joe Rajkovacz, director of government affairs and communications for the Western States Trucking Association.

In this episode, I interview Jim Park a lifelong entrepreneur and recent purveyor of The Living Water Movement. After working in finance and mortgage industry, Jim garnered much success.  He had it all - the house, the cars, the wife, and the picket fence!  But in his own words, he wasn't happy.  He was saved and everything changed!  In fact, have you ever abandoned property?  Like millions of dollars worth of?  You'll have to listen to see what happened!  Next, Jim was set up and called to get into Social Media Marketing.  With no coding or digital chops to necessarily speak of, Jim dove head in and learned the craft on his own.  Like a true entrepreneur!   After some success, just as he had experienced in the mortgage industry, God pulled Jim into a different direction.  Knowing that we need only seek God's righteousness (Psalm 37:25), Jim knew that he wouldn't go hungry. After much prayer, and fellowship with his wife, Jim decided to get into the Living Water movement! (https://www.facebook.com/BettysLivingWater/) What can be more basic than water?  We all need it.  But not all water is created equal.  While Jim does not provide any medical advice, he has become a believer in Kangen water (www.enagic.com) Kangen Water® is delicious water created from Enagic's innovative water technology. Not only do these devices filter your tap water, but they also produce ionized alkaline and acidic waters through electrolysis. These waters can be used for various purposes, including drinking, cooking, beauty, and cleaning.  Jim himself uses the water as well as his family.  (www.thelivingwater.co) From countless testimonies across the country and the world, Kangen water seems to cleanse and revitalize our biology literally from the inside out.  Check it out for yourself.   Contact Jim!  Do your research, and pray to see if Kangen can rock your world!

Guest: Jim Park, Freelance Trucking Journalist and Former Truck Driver The last time truck steering systems saw a big change was back in the 1980s as hydraulic power steering replaced manual steering systems. Now after several decades, truck steering is seeing another big change. Listen to this installment of “Eyes on the Road,” presented by PrePass, as host Evan Lockridge talks with freelance trucking journalist and former truck driver Jim Park about active steering systems. Learn how active steering works, what it means for truck drivers and whether it’s another stepping-stone toward seeing fully or partially autonomous trucks. Evan and Jim also discuss the implications of active steering on truck safety and whether there are any downsides to this new technology. “Eyes on the Road” is the official podcast from PrePass, the most robust weigh station bypass and toll payment platform available.

  People think luxury is about driving a nice car and dressing well, but it’s really about engaging your clients in a different way and offering a valuable experience. How are “global” and “luxury” actually a real strategy? How can you become proactive, anticipate needs, and build a clear system to help luxury clients? What are the big trends in the international luxury market? On this episode, Mortgage Collaborative Partner and luxury expert Jim Park shares on the increase of international buyers and how to capitalize on it.     If you want to build a clientele that’s global, luxury and high net worth, then international is certainly an aspect that you can focus on. -Jim Park   Takeaways + Tactics When you’re dealing with international buyers, remember that you have a small window. You might have to line up many viewings within a few days. Make sure you hone in on what they want. The five states international buyers are primarily going to are: Florida, Texas, California, New Jersey and Arizona. People who buy second homes internationally are high net worth individuals, so appealing to them involves selling the luxury experience.   At the start of the show, Jim shared on how he got started and what he means when he says luxury is a strategy. We talked about how to get more referrals, which are the main sources of the US’s international buyers. We also talked about some of the ways to make the process of looking for a home easier for an international buyer. We also discussed: The Ritz-Carlton experience How to be more proactive and anticipate the needs of international buyers Social media tools People are becoming more global, and real estate is mirroring this. There’s a lot more to getting a more international clientele than understanding their culture. They want their agent to be their eyes and ears, so you have to really hone in on what their looking for in a short span of time. When a high net worth individual wants to buy, they want the amenities, the location, and the experience you are offering.   Guest Bio - Jim Park is the 2013 Chair of the Asian Real Estate Association of America (AREAA) and a partner and co-founder of the Mortgage Collaborative.

In advance of the NBA Finals, Aaron catches up with former Sheridan Hoops writer Jim Park about the Golden State Warriors’ dominance, Steve Kerr’s health-related absence and what, if anything, can slow down these rolling Warriors.A season after winning an NBA-record 73 games and falling one win shy of their second straight championship, the Golden State Warriors are back to the Finals with a vengeance. There, they’ll be meeting a familiar foe in the form of the Cleveland Cavaliers, setting the stage for the third consecutive NBA Finals matchup between the teams. Storylines abound, including Kevin Durant’s long-awaited rematch with LeBron James on the biggest stage imaginable, but these teams’ recent dominance makes it all even more intriguing. Carrying over from the regular season, the Dubs have won 27 of their last 28 games, including a perfect 12 for 12 this postseason. For their part, the Cavaliers are enjoying a league-best 120.7 Offensive Rating these playoffs and, of course, have only been defeated once, a three-point loss to the Celtics in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference finals. Each team’s 2017 playoff Net Rating tops +16 points per 100 possessions.Golden excerpts can be found below:Jim Park 3:55-4:03: “Curry really found himself [basketball-wise] while KD was gone, and he really hasn’t looked back even when KD did come back.”12:20-13:04: “They don’t let teams come back. It’s set up in such a way where other teams have trouble coming back, because, to start the fourth quarter, they have Curry sitting and they’ll have KD starting the game in the fourth quarter, and usually he’s eating. The second-unit guys can’t stop KD, let alone first guys usually, so that’s a tall order for most teams to try to overcome, especially when they’re down. So you really have to play perfectly and try to get out ahead of the Warriors in order to have any kind of chance. Because if you get down, forget it. No chance.”22:36-23:07: “I thought it was like a perfect balance where there was no sacrificing for the most part. Everybody played their parts to the max to be the team that they were last year, and that kind of went away when KD joined the team. Now, somebody has to sacrifice. And somebody, every game, is usually going to have some kind of low output. That’s just the way it goes.”30:23-30:28: “When Draymond plays freely like that, I think the Warriors are virtually unstoppable.”37:36-37:45: “As long as Draymond and Curry stay healthy, I don’t see how the Cavaliers can beat the Warriors. I just don’t see it.”You can subscribe to, rate and review On the NBA Beat on iTunesMusic: “Who Likes to Party” by Kevin MacLeodLearn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
