Jessica Windham - Revolutionizing Logistics: A Fresh Approach to Burnout and Disengagement

07 Mar 2024

Description

Here are my top 3 takeaways from my conversation with Jessica Windham: 1. Be clear on the problem you're solving: Jessica observed a widespread problem of burnout and disengagement in the logistics industry, with a staggering 69% burnout rate among professionals. By addressing this issue of mental wellness first, Jessica can better solve the specific challenges that companies face in logistics consulting. 2. Look for patterns: Jessica introduced the concept of the Logistics Doom Loop, where constant disruptions lead to replanning and burnout. She advocates for creating intentional bandwidth for innovation and strategic thinking, such as efficient email management, to break this cycle and promote proactive problem-solving. 3. Bet on your authentic self: Jessica, at almost 40, chose to embrace her leadership philosophy and values, centering the well-being of logistics teams in industry conversations. Describing herself as a "logistics badass," she emphasizes the importance of authenticity in entrepreneurship, blending professionalism with genuine self-expression. Bonus takeaway. Supportive communities are powerful: Jessica is an ambassador for the networking group Ladies Who Logistic and highlights the significance of a supportive community for women in logistics. These communities foster authentic connections and contribute to professional growth. #businessowner #burnout #burnoutprevention #logisticsleadership #ecommerce #logisticsindustry #entrepreneurship #entrepreneur #womensupportingwomen
