Meet the Logistics Plus Miami Team

Meet the Logistics Plus Miami Team

logistics plus miamiThe Logistics Plus (LP) Miami office opened on August 1st, 2021. The idea originated ten years ago with the intent to increase cargo flow between the United States and Latin America. Based in the heart of the commercial area of Miami and near the Miami airport, this office specializes in Latin American distribution, international freight forwarding, and warehousing.

Although the main focus is on developing the Latin American market, the LP Miami team is looking forward to assisting all customers in the Logistics Plus global network.

Logistics Plus Miami Branch Manager Oscar Cabrales said, “Opening the LP Miami office and warehouse was a dream come true. There were several people involved who have worked with this group for years. Now, we couldn’t be more proud to officially be a part of the Logistics Plus family.”

More LP Employees Complete the Dale Carnegie Program

More LP Employees Complete the Dale Carnegie Program

A new group of Logistics Plus employees completed the Dale Carnegie Skills for Success program at our global headquarters in Erie, PA. For the second time, Logistics Plus provided this foundational leadership program to 21 employees who volunteered to strengthen their people, communication, management, and leadership skills, build confidence, and manage stress more effectively. The course took place for four hours every Wednesday for eight weeks. The program will continue to be made available to additional Logistics Plus employees in the future.

The Dale Carnegie Skills for Success course has five main objectives:

  1. Build greater self-confidence
  2. Strengthen people skills
  3. Enhance communication skills
  4. Develop leadership skills
  5. Reduce stress and improve our attitude

The Dale Carnegie program is used worldwide to help companies improve leadership skills and invest in their employees. Jim Berlin, Founder and CEO of Logistics Plus, has taken the course twice and wanted to allow his employees to experience it.  Jim said, “In my mind, this course gives you the ‘tricks of the trade’ on how to become a better human being, how to get along with others, and how to get things done. I’d highly recommend it to everyone.”

Natalie Loucks, a Project Manager, was one of the employees who participated in the class.  Natalie said, “When I first started the Dale Carnegie course, my personal goal was to gain confidence. During the first few weeks, my goal changed to managing stress and being more positive at work. This change was because I learned more about myself and how others view me. All the topics we covered were relevant, and the course provided ways to improve on leadership, influencing people, and public speaking, just to name a few. I know that anyone who participates in the class will find it to be a rewarding experience.” Upon completion of the class, Natalie won the ‘Highest Achiever’ award.

After the program, our employees expressed gratitude towards Jim and the Dale Carnegie team for providing them with this learning opportunity. The life lessons and leadership skills gained throughout this experience will never be forgotten.
