About
Join us for a special webinar as part of Skills and Leadership Week, where an expert panel will explore the evolving skills and competencies modern fleet managers need to lead successful, future-ready operations.

We’ll be joined by senior representatives from our event supporters FMG and The Charge Scheme, alongside experienced fleet decision-makers who will share their perspectives and practical advice.

The discussion will address some of the most pressing challenges facing the industry today, including:

• The emerging skills shortage in fleet management
• Promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion across teams
• Supporting mental health and wellbeing in the workplace
• Attracting and retaining the next generation of fleet professionals
• Developing leadership confidence and foundational management skills
• Navigating electrification, energy management, and stakeholder engagement

Whether you’re a seasoned fleet leader or just starting your career in fleet, this session will offer valuable insights to help you strengthen your team, adapt to change, and thrive in a rapidly shifting landscape.
