What can trucking companies learn from this year's Best Fleets to Drive For?

In this episode of HDT Talks Trucking, Deborah Lockridge talks with CarriersEdge CEO Jane Jazrawy about the trends emerging from this year's Best Fleets to Drive For program and what they mean for fleets working to attract and retain drivers.

The conversation explores why trust and communication are becoming increasingly important, how survey fatigue is changing the way fleets gather driver feedback, where AI can improve the driver experience, and why company drivers and owner-operators often value different kinds of support.

Jazrawy also discusses changing communication habits, including the declining role of traditional social media and what fleets may need to consider when connecting with younger drivers.
