Mobility vs Safety — Be Exceptional & Sell Yourself
We take a global view this week as we welcome our newest monthly columnist, Jeff Schlesinger, who has a rich background working with multi-national fleets. He says, “There is no question that mobility will gain greater attention in the near future. The traditional marriage between a single driver and a single car may not be the optimal solution for every situation, and fleet managers need to assess their current policies.” Don’t miss his debut article: Safety versus Mobility: You Can Have Both.
If you attended the AFLA Conference in San Diego last month, perhaps you were fortunate enough to have attended the Women in Fleet Management (WIFM) session presented by Susan A. Lund: Ignite Your Selling Potential. We interviewed her at the conference and are pleased to present the first video clip 3 Tips to Sell Yourself in Any Situation from that interview. She is a dynamo!

eDriving and Consumer Scoring Pioneer FICO Announce Strategic Partnership and New Driver Safety Score
eDriving has partnered with leading analytics software firm FICO to launch new scoring algorithms to capture driving behavior and develop a transformational risk predictor — the FICO® Safe Driving Score.
Just as the FICO® Score is the standard measure of consumer credit risk, used by all players in the credit ecosystem, the FICO Safe Driving Score will provide a measure that facilitates consistency and fairness in driver safety assessment.
The strategic partnership between eDriving and FICO will be one of the centerpieces of a new “closed loop” driver training and improvement offering by eDriving, called Mentor™. The Mentor offering will initially serve two key marketplace segments: the fleet market and the teen/novice market, with expected launch dates in Q4 2016 and Q1 2017, respectively.
‘An Incredible Failure of Leadership’: Apple’s Car Project Seems Wracked With Internal Strife
Apple's ambitious car project is in danger of being cut, as hundreds of members of the team working on it have left or been reassigned, Mark Gurman and Alex Webb reported Monday at Bloomberg.
The key to the report is that Apple's car team has been rudderless and has had issues with direction and internal strife.
"It was an incredible failure of leadership," a source told Bloomberg.
In fact, the division, codenamed "Project Titan," has reportedly been given a deadline in late 2017 under its new leadership before the company decides whether the project is working or worth pursuing further, though the company could decide to revisit building its own car if it gets mothballed.
