experience, and a business degree? I also have more than 23 years as an accountant/corporate finance manager. I have experience in budgeting, business modeling/planning, variance analysis, process improvement, project management, team building and many other corporate and business related functions.

I have a goal to start my own logistics related company, but I need more industry specific experience. I've tried driving the big trucks to get connected to some shippers and to familiarize myself with the shipping culture. I have also certified as a transportation broker, but don't have any experience in this area yet. I'm trying to decide what kind of work/job would provide the most education and training that would be the most beneficial toward my goal. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Eddy

Have you considered going back to school? Even picking up a few night classes here and ther ein areas you want help in works. Or possibly get a MBA or masters in another area that interests you. Nowadays, it is very common for people to go9 back to college after working for awhile, and it with the way technology is always changing, it would not hurt to get a few classes in to update yourself.
