The American Trucking Associations is taking a step towards promoting women empowerment through its newly introduced Women in Motion Mentorship Program. The program aims to support the growth and development of women in transportation by fostering an inclusive environment that connects experienced leaders with aspiring ones.

Officially launched during ATA’s Management Conference & Exhibition, scheduled for Oct. 14-17 in Austin, Texas, the Women in Motion Mentorship Program includes an exciting mentor-mentee mixer event. This event provides an opportunity for mentors and mentees to meet, connect, and build valuable relationships with one another in a friendly and supportive setting. Join us as we pave the way for the next generation of women in leadership in the transportation industry.

“As a mentor, you not only have the chance to give back and make a positive impact on someone’s life but also to learn and grow from the experience,” said Women in Motion Co-Chair Sarah Rajtik, ATA executive vice president of human resources, operations and industry affairs. “Through mentorship, we can collectively empower the next generation of women leaders and shape a brighter future for our industry.”

The Women in Motion Mentorship Program gives professionals in the transportation industry, including drivers, dispatchers, managers, technicians, executives, HR professionals, meetings professionals, and lawyers the chance to make a profound impact on the lives of young women. As a mentor, you can share your wisdom with aspiring women professionals, providing guidance, support, and encouragement.

By participating in the mentorship program, mentors can help shape the future of the transportation industry by nurturing talent and empowering young women to overcome challenges and seize opportunities. The program also contributes to a more inclusive and supportive environment that values and embraces women at all levels.

If you’re a successful, experienced woman passionate about sharing your knowledge and expertise, consider becoming a mentor today.
