It’s easy to get stuck in the trap of only hiring employees and leaders from a pool of applicants with industry experience. However, bringing in people outside your respective industry can lead to new ways of solving old problems. Michael Senftleber, CTO at Arrive Logistics, discusses why you should bring in the best talent regardless of industry experience and why product driven leadership is crucial. Tune in!
Arrive Logistics is one of the fastest-growing freight brokerages. Logistics, perhaps more so than many other industries, is seeing a big shift toward technology beyond traditional IT. Michael Senftleber, CTO at Arrive Logistics, is one of the people leading this charge.
Unlike many professionals in the logistics industry, Michael came from a product background. On this week’s edition of Innovation and the Digital Enterprise, Michael discussed why product driven leadership is so beneficial to hiring.
