In cargo.one:one Episode 13, we’re joined by a seasoned leader steering an industry giant – Henk Venema, EVP & Head of Global Airfreight at DHL Global Forwarding. With over 20 years of diverse logistics experience, he is a well known face on the European logistics scene, and a seasoned expert in crafting and delivering top class freight forwarding.
In one of his very first interviews in this new role, Henk explores his start in logistics, his undying love for airfreight, evolution in market needs, the fundamentals of great air forwarding service, the balance of economics and sustainability, potential with AI, and his learnings about leadership.
Reflecting upon the potentials for AI in enhancing air logistics, Henk says: “I could not be doing this job if I would not be a fan of digitization, to be very honest…Freight forwarding, same as many service industries, is also still a people's business. But then let's make sure that we use the people where we can really deploy them where they are best and that is in interaction with other people. And let AI do the stuff.”
