About This Session

In today’s fast-paced freight and logistics landscape, women aren’t just part of the movement — they’re shaping its direction. This dynamic session is designed for women across brokerage, dispatch, carrier sales, operations, and leadership roles who are ready to amplify their influence and impact. You'll gain the tools to communicate with confidence, negotiate with purpose, and lead with authenticity without compromising your identity. Whether you're navigating the frontlines or making strategic decisions behind the scenes, this session is your roadmap to being heard, respected, and truly seen.

Attend this session to:

  • Hear About Strategic Communication Mastery:
    Learn how to lead freight conversations with confidence-building scripts and objection-handling techniques, while discovering the power of storytelling, tone, and timing to earn trust and respect across the logistics landscape.
     
  • Understand Smart, Gender-Aware Negotiation:
    Uncover how to use market data and carrier insights as tools of influence—not pressure—paired with negotiation strategies that blend assertiveness with connection for stronger, more balanced outcomes.
     
  • Develop a Career Voice and Industry Visibility:
    Build the skills to advocate for yourself in key moments—from meetings to customer calls—while learning how to mentor others and develop a personal brand that drives long-term recognition and leadership within your company and beyond.
