Karin Bridges and Lindsey Martinez recognized as outstanding
female leaders in the supply chain industry
RXO (NYSE: RXO) leaders Karin Bridges and Lindsey Martinez were
named as winners of this year’s Women in Supply Chain Award by
Supply & Demand Chain Executive and Food Logistics. The award
honors female supply chain leaders and executives whose
accomplishments, mentorships and examples set a foundation for
women in all levels of a company’s supply chain network.
“We’re thrilled to celebrate the achievements of two exceptional
RXO leaders – Karin and Lindsey,” said Drew Wilkerson, chief
executive officer of RXO. “Their remarkable professionalism and
drive set a high standard within the organization and the entire
industry. They serve as inspiring examples for all leaders to
follow.”
Bridges serves as the senior director of operations for freight
forwarding at RXO and was named to the Trailblazers category. This
award honors female leaders who continue to pave the way for future
females in logistics. Bridges, with more than 20 years of
experience in the industry, leads more than 260 employees across
branches in Miami, Orlando, Monterrey, Dallas, Chicago and China.
Her leadership has motivated her team and driven success through
productivity improvement, prioritization and removing silos to
foster stronger connections. In the past year, Bridges oversaw the
combination of RXO’s freight forwarding and managed transportation
businesses, developing solutions to create more value for customers
and carriers.
Martinez, director of procurement for RXO’s managed
transportation business, was named to the DEI Pioneer category,
which celebrates female leaders who continue to create and execute
diversity, equity and inclusion efforts. In Martinez’s six years at
RXO, she has significantly and positively impacted RXO’s business
by revamping strategies, streamlining processes and optimizing
spend. Her actions have resulted in a 50 percent decrease in the
time it takes to launch a new customer. Internally, Martinez is
involved in the empowerment of women in the industry. She actively
participates in RXO’s Women’s Inclusion Network and also serves on
the board of the Transportation Club of Detroit, working to expand
its community contributions through scholarships.
“Every year, this award continues to amaze me. But this year
especially, it’s all about the quality of the submissions. These
women are doing remarkable things for their communities,
organizations and teams and are paving the way for future young
female leaders to be a part of an industry that’s making a
difference,” says Marina Mayer, Editor-in-Chief of Food Logistics
and Supply & Demand Chain Executive and Co-Founder of the Women
in Supply Chain Forum.
