But if you're open to opinion, eager and listen to the advice of those with more experience - the possibilities in transport are endless. No matter what 'age dynamic' category you fit into.

We have some fantastic millennial's working for us tech savvy, forward thinking, hard working and not afraid to try and change the old ways. I like to think we have always been technologically advanced and not afraid of change so they fit in no problem. It doesn't matter how a process can be made better it's important that you always be open to better solutions.
