Introduction
Currently a part-time UPS supervisor in charge of the personal vehicle drivers for the
2022 peak season. I have worked at UPS in various positions over the years, including a
personal vehicle driver for two seasons, a pre-load package handler, and a pre-load
supervisor. I am now a part-time dispatch supervisor and I am overseeing the 2022 PVD
season. I am a hard-working and motivated individual dedicated to my job and providing the
The group of personal vehicle drivers for the UPS peak season of 2022 comprises
individuals of different ages, ethnicities, and work backgrounds. There are both new and
previous seasonal employees in the group. The drivers come from all over the country and
have a wide range of experience levels. Most drivers are in their 20s and 30s, but a few are in
their 40s and 50s. The group is ethnically diverse, with drivers from all over the state. There
are a variety of work backgrounds represented in the group, from those who have been
driving seasonally for UPS for many years to those who are new to the company.
Despite having various backgrounds, all drivers are committed to giving UPS clients
the best service possible. They are driven and hard-working people dedicated to executing
their jobs properly. The drivers are an integral element of the UPS team and help to uphold
the organization's high standards. The drivers are valued employees of UPS and are
recognized for their commitment and labor of love. They are a crucial team component and
The management team for UPS personal vehicle drivers frequently meets to discuss
the problems and issues the drivers may face this season. The PVD department head, the
dispatch manager, and the safety manager are just a few of the managers who make up the
3
team. Every Wednesday, the crew meets in the company's boardroom to examine the drivers'
Group Goals
Delivering packages to customers in a safe and timely manner is the main objective of
UPS seasonal drivers. To ensure that each customer is satisfied individually, the group
employs a customer-centred approach that focuses on the client's needs. The supervisors are
in charge of training the drivers during orientation and are responsible to conduct safety
methods following once a month to make sure the seasonal drivers are adhering to the rules
The group also wants to work hard and be motivated. Setting goals, pursuing them,
being committed to their work, and upholding UPS safety standards are all things the group
must do. Ensure they are highly motivated to meet delivery deadlines and complete the
deliveries in a safe and timely manner; this is crucial (Bion,2018). In order to ensure seamless
operation, the group finally works to realize all of the aims and goals they have suggested.
The team will succeed in its objectives by getting everyone to sign documentation
acknowledging that they have read and understood the job specifications. A discussion of the
task and an opportunity to address any questions that may have arisen will also be allowed
after each meeting. The team will also ensure that they pass inspection before using their cars
to deliver packages.
Everyone who understands the job requirements must sign the document. This is crucial
because it guarantees that everyone is aware of expectations and is on the same page.
Everyone must ensure their vehicle passes inspection before using it to deliver packages. This
is important because it ensures that the vehicles being used are safe and will not cause any
4
accidents or damage to the delivered packages. Safety guidelines must be followed along
with vehicle maintenance and state requirements to have a valid driver’s license and
insurance.
The exercise that the group will engage in is the "Vehicle Selection Exercise."
1. Divide the group into pairs and have each pair choose a vehicle.
2. Have each pair spend a few minutes discussing the following questions:
- How well do you think the vehicle will hold up during the peak season?
3. After each pair has had a chance to discuss their questions, have them share their answers
4. Ask each group member to share what they learned from the exercise.
This activity will assist your group in considering the various vehicle types that will be
utilized during the busiest time of the year and the issues that must be taken into account
