Diversity Global Magazine’s Post

Yesterday, I had the honour of standing as the voice of the Canadian Truck Operators Association at the vibrant Truck World Show held at The International Convention Centre in Mississauga. The event was a hub of inspiration as industry leaders showcased their dedication and innovation, and I couldn't help but swell with pride as I witnessed the extraordinary contributions of the South Asian community in shaping the North American supply chain. Among the highlights were the best practices exemplified by JB Rand Express and SPS Logistics. These companies are not only driving efficiency in logistics but also investing heavily in their most valuable asset – their employees. It was inspiring to learn about their commitment to continuous upskilling through soft skills and leadership training initiatives. In particular, I was struck by the visionary leadership of Ms. Paramjit Kajla and Mr. Bob Randhawa. Their shared vision to elevate human capital within the industry is not just admirable but essential for sustainable growth. Collaborating with such forward-thinkers to work together to foster a culture of learning and innovation, is an honor. Together, we're not just shaping the future of logistics; we're investing in the development and empowerment of our workforce. Here's to continued collaboration and the pursuit of excellence in employee engagement and enrichment! #TruckShow #Logistics #SupplyChain #EmployeeDevelopment #Leadership #Innovation #Collaboration

I'm absolutely thrilled to reflect on the incredible strides we've made in such a short time with Mercedes Robinson, M.A., Ed.M. at the helm of our DEI initiatives at Lean In Systems & Solutions. Since Mercedes joined us, we've seen tangible progress in addressing crucial issues at the intersection of diversity, equity, inclusion, and psychological safety. Under her leadership, we're not just talking about change – we're living it. Our efforts in creating an inclusive environment have started to address systemic challenges that many institutions face, such as high turnover and employee dissatisfaction. Mercedes' innovative approach to DEI has been a game-changer, especially in enhancing psychological safety across our organization. This is just the beginning. With Mercedes driving our DEI vision, I'm confident that we'll continue to break barriers and foster a workplace culture where everyone feels valued, heard, and empowered. The impact of her work is already evident, and I can't wait to see how much more we'll achieve together. #ProudTeam #DEIProgress #PsychologicalSafety #InclusiveCulture #LeadershipMatters #LeanInLeadership #TransformingWorkplaces #InclusionInAction #EmpoweringChange #MercedesLeads
