TSR said the 27-page e-book, "Driver Coaching: Best Practices & Frameworks for Success," is designed to empower safety managers, directors, and coaches of commercial drivers with practical advice and industry best practices.

It offers insights from seasoned experts, examples from successful organizations, and actionable strategies to improve driver safety and efficiency.

"Driver safety and efficiency is often top of mind for fleet and safety leaders – but practical advice on how to implement and improve a proactive driver coaching program can be hard to find," said Peter Goldwasser, executive director of Together for Safer Roads. "That’s why we worked with Samsara to help them develop 'Driver Coaching: Best Practices & Frameworks for Success.'”

Details of Key Guidance Found in the e-Book

According to TSR, the e-book provides guidance in several key areas, including:

Program Design: Learn how to create or refine a driver coaching program that is built to last. Whether starting a program from the ground up or optimizing an existing one, leverage program design advice from Samsara’s largest customers across transportation and logistics, food and beverage construction, and public sector, to build an effective and sustainable coaching experience.
