What industry leaders say

Fleet safety, sustainability and executive leaders on Lee's work.
“
Lee has been a strong advocate for improving work-related road safety and ensuring that vehicle and driver safety are recognised as critical workplace health and safety issues. His leadership has helped organisations take a more mature approach to managing both company vehicles as well as grey fleet, recognising that the risks associated with work-related driving extend beyond just the vehicles an organisation owns.
Through his practical expertise and industry leadership, Lee has consistently promoted evidence-based approaches that improve driver safety, strengthen organisational risk management and deliver better outcomes. Lee has always been willing to collaborate and openly share his insights inspiring others to follow suit and build on them. His contribution has helped advance the conversation around both fleet safety and sustainability across Australia.

Lee’s commitment to environmental sustainability translates into practical and lasting results. Lee played an important role in helping to achieve the accolade of the first organisation in South Australia to be certified carbon-neutral (since 2015). This certification received significant recognition for leadership in sustainability.
Lee was instrumental in the organisation’s transition of its fleet to hybrid vehicles many years ago, followed by electric vehicles. This resulted in a significant cumulative reduction in fuel use and associated carbon emissions, as well as fleet operating costs. Lee’s industry leadership to decarbonise transport demonstrates how a well-planned fleet strategy can make a meaningful contribution to any organisation’s environmental goals.

“
Lee led and elevated fleet strategy and management by connecting vehicle safety, organisational risk, environmental responsibility and operating and financial outcomes. He strengthened the safety culture and performance across both company and grey fleet vehicles and advanced the transition to both hybrids and EVs, helping reduce fuel use, carbon emissions and costs.
His twelve years on the AfMA Board, including eleven years as President and Vice President, together with receiving AfMA’s Fleet Environment Award as far back as 2010, all reflect his significant ongoing contribution to the fleet industry. He has established an enviable track record for excellence and leadership in optimising performance in the management of fleets in complex operating environments.
