Knight-Swift’s CEO Adam Miller joins Lee Klaskow, Bloomberg Intelligence senior transportation and logistics analyst for a fireside chat at SMC3’s JumpStart 2026 Conference in Atlanta on this episode of Talking Transports podcast. Miller explains why the company is better positioned following the near-completion of its national less-than-truckload network, with scale, flexibility and diversification supporting a renewed focus on margin recovery and network density before further LTL expansion. He also shares views on the truckload cycle, potential federal supply-side support, autonomous trucking, railroad consolidation and how his mentor Kevin Knight shaped his accountability-driven leadership style.
