Key Skills Logistics Supervisors Need To Be Successful

The biggest myth in a logistics or warehouse operation is that frontline leaders only need to know technical skills to be proficient and do not need to worry about people skills.
The fact is, that warehouse supervisors do have to have a lot of knowledge around:
• How to run the computer systems
• Operating clerical systems
• The shipping and receiving functions
But what are the key logistics supervisor skills that are necessary for them to lead effectively?
• Communicate expectations effectively
• Train & engage
• Involve them in the success of the operation
When you do those three things you are going to have a winning combination.
