The complexity of understanding gender identity within a workplace setting cannot be understated. In our society, gender impacts individuals in the workplace in a multitude of ways such as power, privilege, leadership, employment opportunities, productivity, and much more. Part of our mission is to promote the importance of diversity and acceptance in the workplace.

Dr. Gennifer Herley of TransNewYork had the honor of facilitating a meaningful panel discussion about Diversity and Inclusion at the 2022 Accelerate! Conference & Expo, hosted by the Women In Trucking Association, with the following participants: Lindsay Goodman, JB Hunt, Regan Payne, Fusion Now, and John Pope, Cargo Transporters.
