The 2024 RK Managers Summit recently convened, uniting managers and regional leaders for an intensive annual meeting aimed at collaboration, knowledge sharing, and process enhancement. Key presentations were delivered by prominent figures within the organization such as Ryan (VP of Operations), Brent (GM), and a group of regional and training managers. Dialogue centered around pivotal themes including communication, safety protocols, fleet management, hospitality standards, organizational efficiency, and operational excellence. Held at RK HQ, this comprehensive event brought together attendees from our Oklahoma, New Mexico, South Texas, and Permian locations. This event fostered an important exchange of ideas and methods designed to enhance team empowerment and strengthen safety protocol adherence across our organization, ensuring we are prepared to face future challenges head-on.
