We are excited to officially announce the launch of our new book:📘 Powered by People: Building Culture That Outlasts the FounderOriginally streamed on July 7th at 3:00 PM.Over the past several years, we have had the privilege of working alongside some of the most respected family-owned transportation companies in America. Through those experiences, we became fascinated by a question that every founder and leader eventually faces:What happens to your legacy when you're no longer there to lead it?This book was born from that question.Inside these pages, you'll meet founders, second-generation leaders, and emerging successors who have built organizations rooted in trust, resilience, faith, service, and an unwavering commitment to people. Their stories are honest. Their lessons are hard-earned. And their examples remind us that the strongest companies are not built on equipment, technology, or strategy alone.They are built on people.We are deeply grateful to the incredible leaders who shared their stories and wisdom:Catherine Ezzell-Joyner, Ezzell TruckingElise Johnson, Leonard's ExpressBrooklyn Keizer, Keizer CompaniesGarrett Knollman, Transmark LogisticsCollin Kottke, Kottke TruckingEd Nagle, Nagle CompaniesJohn Pemberton, Pemberton Truck LinesMary Schaupp, LCL TransitTogether, their experiences reveal what it takes to build organizations that endure across generations.Our hope is that these stories inspire founders, leaders, entrepreneurs, and future generations to build cultures rooted in purpose, values, and human connection.Because in the end, businesses are not powered by trucks, trailers, buildings, or technology.They are powered by people.#PoweredByPeople #Leadership #Legacy #Trucking
