Mode Switching and the Mobility Manager

Every day over 70 million Americans figures out how to commute on their own. When you take a job, pick a school, or choose a doctor, you don’t think about it, but you are buying a commute. You are committing to be able to get there, at your own cost. There are too many articles written about the poor decision making of government leaders that has created transportation problems. This isn’t wrong. It’s absolutely right. But what’s wrong is that the authors often look back to the same leadership and system to fix the problem. Instead, on the Commute Podcast, we will challenge the audience to look differently at where the decision-making problem exists and how it can be fixed. On this podcast, we explore the forces and functions behind the way we move and how the future of commuting could look in a world where everyone is a passenger.
