We in fleet are a collegial group, and it is never more on display than at our annual forums. Fleet marketer Tod Trousdell adroitly captures the essence of the recently concluded AFLA conclave in his delightful article 2025 AFLA Conference Sets Attendance Record While Celebrating an Industry in Flux.
“There’s no doubt that fleet is a business,” said Steve Bender, who led AFLA as president two years ago. “But the real beauty of this industry is that the members are like family so no matter what technology brings to the table or what advancements AI delivers, what really matters is the human connection.”
And speaking of the human connection, if you are attending the NETS 2025 Strength IN Numbers conference in Minneapolis next week, be sure to say hello to Fleet Management Weekly’s president, Ted Roberts. We are keenly interested in featuring news from fleet managers and fleet service providers who are laser-focused on fleet safety.
