Digitalization is everywhere, in both our private and professional lives. In order to find the right way to deal with it, it is essential that we engage with it. DACHSER CEO Burkhard Eling shares his thoughts on the matter.
Quick Read
Day after day, we experience how the world is changing. Digitalization is shaping our everyday lives: from messaging and streaming apps to AI-powered assistants, digital tickets, and chatbots.
Digital transformation, which is also at the top of the agenda at DACHSER, brings enormous opportunities for greater efficiency, competitiveness, and growth. There is no doubt that digital tools can make our work much easier. Nevertheless, some people are not sure whether they are up to the pace of change.
Becoming the most digitalized logistics service provider means taking everyone with us on this journey and establishing a positive Digital Mindset.
Digitalization strategy with a clear focus
At DACHSER, we are therefore implementing our digitalization strategy with a clear focus on people: our employees, customers, and partners. Becoming the most digitalized logistics service provider means taking everyone with us on this journey and establishing a positive Digital Mindset. For us, the value of digitization is ultimately always measured by its value for people. Despite all the enthusiasm for technology, this also includes classifying new technologies such as AI and using them in the right applications in a planned way.
With this vision in mind, we are pursuing our goal of becoming the most digitalized logistics service provider. We hope you will continue to accompany us on this journey!
