    Barry Devereux's 2 year review

    Barry Devereux's 2 year review Welcome back to Fleet Geeks, the podcast for transport managers who want to run safer, smarter and more compliant fleets. Today’s episode is a little bit different. We’re doing a 2 year review with Barry, who many of our clients will already know well. Barry plays a crucial role supporting our customers behind the scenes. He helps operators stay on top of their compliance, documentation, and systems, making sure the right processes are in place so businesses stay on the right side of the regulator and avoid unnecessary headaches. Think of Baz as one of the people quietly keeping the engine of compliance running smoothly for our clients. So today we’re going to look back over the last 24 months — what he’s been seeing across fleets, the common challenges operators are facing, and some practical lessons transport managers can take away. Let’s get into it. The Fleet Geeks Podcast is here to support fleet managers, transport managers, and fleet professionals at every stage of their journey. Our mission is simple: to develop safer, smarter, and more confident fleet and transport leaders.

    Effective Delegation: How to Nail It (Without Dropping Standards)

    Effective Delegation: How to Nail It (Without Dropping Standards) Delegation isn’t about getting work off your desk. It’s about transferring ownership without transferring standards. If done badly, it creates chaos. If done well, it creates capacity. And here’s the uncomfortable truth: If you’re exhausted, constantly firefighting, and telling yourself “it’s quicker if I do it” — you don’t have a time problem. You have a delegation problem. In todays episode we explore how you can become a dynamic delegator too!

    Why Good Fleet Managers Burn Out Faster Than Bad Ones

    Why Good Fleet Managers Burn Out Faster Than Bad Ones Central paradox: The people who care the most, carry the most — and quietly pay the highest price.
