The logistics and supply chain industry is one of the most vital and dynamic sectors in the global economy, responsible for the movement of goods and services worldwide.

However, it is also one of the most male-dominated fields, with women accounting for only 41 percent of the supply chain workforce in 2021, according to a survey by Gartner. This percentage drops further to 15 percent at the executive level, indicating a significant gap in women’s leadership representation and career progression.
