Event Overview
Culture, Community & Impact: The Future of Women in the Cold Chain
3 December 2026 | 2:00 p.m. EST
Join us for a 90-minute interactive workshop on what actually moves the needle for women in cold chain and logistics. This session brings together organizational culture expertise, global DEI practice, and supply chain research to explore the cultural shifts that will shape the next five years of the industry, and how we measure whether we’re making real progress. Part of GCCA’s ongoing Women in Cold Chain program.
$99 event registration includes all workshop session materials.
This session goes beyond conventional DEI talking points to focus on what’s proven to work in industrial and logistics environments specifically. Sara Stickler will share evidence-based strategies, real organizational examples, and honest reflections on what hasn’t worked, so participants leave with practical direction rather than theory.
This is an interactive session so be prepared for breakout rooms and discussions breakout conversation and live discussion on:
- What cultural shifts, big or small, will most advance women in the cold chain over the next five years.
- How to measure progress across both Americold and GCCA participation.
