✅ Are we missing a crucial step in technician career paths?
✅ Why do techs leave—and is it really just about pay?
✅ How can fleet managers develop their own future leaders?
This episode dives deep into the career progression of fleet professionals, from turning wrenches to leading a shop, and the massive gap in training that’s holding many back. If you’re managing a fleet, hiring techs, or wondering how to grow in your career, this is a must-listen episode!
✔️ Fleet Career Paths Are Broken – Most techs don’t plan to become fleet managers, so we must show them the way early.
✔️ The Sink-or-Swim Mentality Is Failing Supervisors – Many techs are promoted without leadership training, leading to frustration and high turnover.
✔️ Culture Matters More Than You Think – If your techs leave for 50 cents more an hour, they’re actually leaving for a bigger reason.
✔️ Training & Cross-Training Are Key – Techs need to see beyond the wrench: parts, service writing, data analytics, and leadership skills are crucial.
✔️ Workforce Development Needs a Reboot – High schools and trade schools must do a better job explaining fleet as a long-term career path, not just a job.
✔️ Your Best Future Fleet Manager Is Already in Your Shop – But are you giving them the tools to grow?
🔹 Marc Canton – Head of Product & Consulting at RTA Fleet with 30 years of experience in fleet management, analytics, and vehicle costing.
🔹 Facundo Tassara – Fleet success manager with 25+ years in the industry, leading fleet development and training.
