It is constantly changing and evolving. For this development, you need people with skill, expertise and decisiveness. With the tightness in today&#8217;s job market, this is no easy task. How do you find the right people for management positions, for example, who have both expertise, experience, dedication and preferably already have a network? The answer often is; you can&#8217;t. This is where logistics freelancers can provide a solution. Unfortunately, there are often misconceptions about interim management in the logistics industry. It is time to break these myths. How?
