Podcast – Episode 87:
Simplified Logistics through Innovation
How innovation drives one of the key pillars to 21st century societies – delivery services
Some would say that technology drives the world, and innovation is in the driving seat. Well, let’s meet one of these – we got Erik Wirsing, VP of Innovation at DB Schenker. He sat down with TC to share his journey from techie to tech leader, as well as how he roles as a leader, and how he approaches innovation as a process. If you’re into innovation, you’re going to love this one. If you’re not into innovation…seriously?
“Successful leading is more about curiosity and freedom, than about anything else. The regulations and rules you put in place have to reflect that.“
With Erik, we dived deep into what it means to be up-to-date with innovation, and how to navigate through that storm of innovation that we’re living through in this age of tech.
Key Takeaways from the podcast:
- How being aware of the solutions available here and now can help you build for the future
- Why delivering things virtually can be the way of the future
- How to approach solving logistical problems on a larger and smaller magnitude
