Christina Hilton, Jennifer Kaczmarcyzk and Alyssa Myers
recognized as outstanding female leaders in the supply chain
industry
RXO leaders Christina Hilton, Jennifer Kaczmarczyk and Alyssa
Myers 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 have three outstanding RXO leaders recognized
for their accomplishments, not only within RXO, but the industry as
a whole. Christina, Jennifer and Alyssa exemplify a level of
professionalism and drive that is unmatched, and they provide a
roadmap for all leaders – not just females – to learn from,” said
Drew Wilkerson, chief executive officer at RXO.
Hilton is the senior director of operations at RXO where she
spearheads several business enablement teams to drive accurate
customer billing and timely carrier payment. She has led a team of
more than 150 employees throughout her time at RXO with focus on
continuous process and system improvement. In addition to striving
for excellence within her position, Hilton serves as a role model
to team members by leading by example as well as a mentor in the
RXO Rise program, which provides opportunities for employees to
grow their careers.
Kaczmarcyzk serves as a vice president of operations in RXO’s
brokerage business, leading eight teams and a total of more than
450 people across five locations. She focuses on leveraging
technology to deliver innovative solutions for customers and
building a diverse and inclusive culture. Through her focus on
employee wellness and growth, Kaczmarcyzk spearheaded an employee
wellness challenge to encourage employees to prioritize their
physical and mental health. She also serves on the company’s
environmental, social and corporate governance steering team and as
a mentor and executive sponsor for RXO Rise.
Myers, vice president of technology, has played an integral role
in shaping RXO’s technology strategy. Across several different
roles throughout her tenure at RXO, Myers has focused on developing
RXO’s proprietary freight brokerage platforms, RXO Connect™ and RXO
Drive™. These platforms make it easier for shippers to move freight
quickly, connecting customers with a massive network of carriers.
In addition to her excellence within logistics technology, Myers
strives to be an advocate for women in the fields of logistics and
technology to grow thought diversity, fueling creativity and
innovation.
“This year, we received over 400 submissions, the highest amount
of applications not only for this award, but also for all of our
awards. What’s more, 118 of those applications were submitted by
male counterparts, nominating their boss, co-worker or associate.
Last year, that figure was just at 75. Also this year, 39 women
self-nominated, a tremendous uptick from last year’s award, which
just saw 12 self-nominations. This shows progress. This shows hope
that one day, we won’t need an award like this because men and
women in the supply chain will be equal,” says Marina Mayer,
Editor-in-Chief of Food Logistics and Supply & Demand Chain
Executive. “While there’s still more work to be done, what we’re
doing is working. From truck drivers to CEOs, what these winners
are doing matters to the future of all supply chains.”
