Warehouse Unrest. 3 AM. T-shirt soaked in sweat. Alone. That’s where Joe Perkins, now COO of Carolina Handling, found himself early in his career —after pushing team productivity too far, too fast. 💥 His team walked out .

Joe went from player to coach , from telling to asking , and from forklift seller to logistics innovator . You’ll learn: 🚫 Why “telling” doesn’t work 🧠 How to get teams to own strategy 💪 The 2 traits every employee needs 🎯 Why goal-setting needs to evolve—or fail 📬 And why his team now sends him postcards of their dreams “Pour into your people.” That’s Joe’s mantra—and after this conversation, you’ll never forget it. 💬 What’s one lesson that changed the way you lead? ----- Follow Joe on LinkedIn: Learn more about Carolina Handling: https://www.carolinahandling.com/ ----- Connect with the Host, #1 bestselling author Ben Fanning Speaking and Training inquires Subscribe to my Youtube channel LinkedIn Instagram Twitter
