1 Set boundaries and priorities

One of the first steps to avoid burnout and maintain your sanity is to set clear boundaries and priorities between your work and your personal life. This means defining what is important and urgent, and what can be delegated, postponed, or eliminated. It also means communicating your expectations and availability to your boss, colleagues, clients, and family, and respecting their needs and preferences as well. For example, you can establish a regular schedule for your work hours, limit your use of email and phone calls after hours, and block out time for your hobbies, interests, and social activities.

2 Use technology wisely

Technology can be a double-edged sword for transportation managers. On one hand, it can help you streamline your tasks, automate your processes, and access real-time data and insights. On the other hand, it can also create distractions, interruptions, and information overload. To use technology wisely, you need to choose the tools and platforms that suit your needs and goals, and avoid those that waste your time and energy. You also need to manage your notifications, alerts, and subscriptions, and turn them off when you need to focus or relax. Moreover, you need to protect your data and devices from cyberattacks, viruses, and malware, which can cause delays, losses, and stress.

A tecnologia deve ser aliada do seu negocio. Existe um erro muito comum quando se coloca a tecnologia e em vez de facilitar a rotina a torna muito mais complexa e exaustiva, por isso sempre deve se perguntar: se a ferramenta acabasse hoje, quais seriam os reais impactos no negocio.

3 Delegate and collaborate

Transportation management is not a solo job. You need to work with a team of people who have different skills, roles, and responsibilities. You also need to coordinate with other stakeholders, such as suppliers, carriers, customers, and regulators. To make your job easier and more efficient, you need to delegate and collaborate effectively. This means assigning tasks and responsibilities to the right people, providing clear instructions and feedback, and trusting them to do their job. It also means sharing information, resources, and ideas, and seeking input and support from others when needed.

In my experience, one of the most effective strategies for managing a demanding transportation management role is to empower and educate my teammates. Over the years, I've found that investing in my team and helping them acquire the knowledge and skills that I possess has been highly beneficial. By grooming them to perform the tasks I handle, it not only builds a robust succession plan but also alleviates the burden on my shoulders. This approach not only ensures that operations run smoothly but also allows me to focus on personal growth and explore new areas of learning

O setor é extremamente dinamico e possui muitas váriaveis que influenciam no resultado final. Influencias politicas e monetárias podem tornar projetos, até ent?o altamente lucrativos, em um risco real ao negocio.

5 Take care of yourself

Last but not least, you need to take care of yourself physically, mentally, and emotionally. Your transportation management job can be physically demanding, requiring you to sit, stand, drive, or fly for long periods. It can also be mentally and emotionally draining, exposing you to pressure, conflict, and uncertainty. To cope with these demands, you need to adopt a healthy lifestyle that includes regular exercise, balanced nutrition, adequate sleep, and hydration. You also need to practice stress management techniques, such as meditation, breathing, relaxation, and positive thinking. Furthermore, you need to nurture your relationships with your family, friends, and community, and seek help when you need it.
