Mark Joseph Looks Back at Going From Taxis to Transdev and What’s Next for Transit


Listen Later

This week Paul continues his look back at his time working at Yellow Transportation with the former CEO of Yellow, Veolia, and Transdev, Mark Joseph (now CEO of Mobitas Advisors--https://www.mobitasadvisors.com/).

Mark is a true leader and visionary in the transit industry. Mark recounts how he took a failing taxi business and created a business that would be a leader in public transit contracting.

Mark reflects on the future of transit, talking about workforce challenges, the opportunities (and pitfalls) of AI, and how we need to look to technology to move the industry forward.

In our Marketing Minute, Elea Carey gives some tips for using generative AI tools like ChatGPT to help create more content for your agency's blog.

Coming up next week, we have Mike Noland, President and GM of the South Shore Line, talking with Paul about commuter rail connecting Northern Indiana and Chicago, but more importantly, what's really needed to boost inter-city rail in the U.S.
