Ep #42 Zimark | Smart Pallet Tracking for Warehouses & 3PLs with Hilla Herzog Manor

Hilla Herzog Manor is the VP Strategy @ Zimark | Smart Pallet Tracking for Warehouses & 3PLs. And they have built and are building some amazingly valuable warehouse tools for operators. Cameras on forklifts tracking movement into bins and in the facility? Yes please. Shipping control cameras at the dock compiling proof of loads. Yup. Vision to one day rid all operations of manual scanning? YES PLEASE! This is just scratching the surface too. Great episode to listen to and find out more! These guys are inside the warehouses building their solutions from real feedback from real people working there. Because they know the truth: The best feature in the world is worthless if the forklift operator ignores it.

Ep #41 Real-Time Warehouse Operational Visibility. Sarit Tamir Founder & CEO Seeteria

Sarit Tamir is Founder & CEO at Seeteria, which I must say, is a very cool start up with a great solution for a problem in large distribution centers: it's hard to see everything at once! But if your site has cameras already inside and Wi-Fi, they have all they need to start working the magic! They're eliminating the invisible middle in warehouse operations by providing real time visibility right to your phone with alerts and all the data you could want to your computer. The platform translates video into live operational signals such as dwell time, congestion, dock activity, and workflow delays without requiring WMS integration. Check them out today and see the whole flow clearly!

Ep #40 Leroy Pinckney Jr, Senior Operations & Supply Chain Leader (Veteran)

Leroy Pinckney Jr. has seen it all. Raised in Harlem. Deployed to Iraq in the Army. A distribution career in multiple organizations (including Amazon.) He was recently laid off and is now navigating the world of networking, job applications, interviews and ultimately continually putting himself out there to find the new right spot for him. And it can be tough out there. BUT he's all over it (see his most recent viral LinkedIn posts.) We talk about his background and more: What it really means to lead people when the stakes are high and the margin for error is zero. He sees himself as a lion. What happens when the lion gets laid off? No quit. Just finds a new hunt. 🦁 If you're in the same boat, Leroy can be an inspiration and guide for you!

Ep #39 Knight-Swift Supply Chain Ops Champions (7 During Break)

I must say, there are some exciting, buzz worthy, and extremely positive stuff going on at Knight-Swift Supply Chain! They allowed me a chance to record this amazing podcast episode to chat with and highlight SEVEN of their stellar ops employees. These folks are a mix of salaried and hourly. They chatted with me during a break in operations and they were GREAT! It really comes through the positivity they feel, and they embody and embrace the company core values. Hear from some unheralded folks who are the REAL folks getting the J.O.B. done daily.
