It's great when two people you know personally receive well earned industry recognition for career leadership and personal commitment. Such is the case with Mike Regan, CEO of Tranzact Technologies and Al Burba, VP of Field Sales for DHL Express.
NASSTRAC recognized both at their annual Logistics Conference and Exhibition in Orlando on April 29th. Regan was recognized as "Regular Member of the Year" while Al Burba was recognized as "Associate Member of the Year".
I serve with Mike Regan on the Board of Directors of the American Society of Transportation & Logistics and know him to be a visionary leader and substantive influence on the direction and strategic value of supply chain and logistics.
Al Burba is a great friend and colleague of mine at DHL and a superior talent for our company. Al's energy and customer care are well known. He teaches his troops by example and has built a reputation for quality in every part of the business he has touched. Al was a major influencer on the NASSTRAC carrier advisory council for the previous two years.
These are good guys getting well earned recognition. Congratulations Mike and Al!
