Harnessing the Power of Connected Learning in Trucking: An Interview with Dr. Gina Anderson

In this episode of the Trucking Risk and Insurance Podcast, hosts Chris & John interview Dr. Gina Anderson, CEO and co-founder of Luma Brighter Learning.
Dr. Anderson discusses the unique aspects of Luma's connected learning platform, which leverages synergies of connection to change behaviors, particularly in the transportation and logistics industries.
