Across our industry, countless women are making great strides in their careers while positively impacting their companies and helping to promote greater gender diversity.
Every year, Redefining the Road, our official magazine, recognizes the top performers in the industry who not only have had significant career accomplishments in the last year, but go the extra mile to support other women and help to improve gender diversity – at their own companies and/or industry-wide.

Whether her role is in Leadership, Operations & Safety, HR/Talent Management, Sales & Marketing, or as a Professional Driver, nominate her as a Top Woman to Watch in Transportation!
