To kick off our month-long celebration of Women’s History Month, we’re bringing you a powerhouse panel of women leading the charge in supply chain at Henkel! From inventory management to transportation, logistics, and customer excellence, these leaders take us inside the end-to-end supply chain—breaking down challenges, sharing career lessons, and decoding common industry myths. Join Emily Aktar (Supply Chain Manager), Cheryl Lamb (eCommerce & Continuous Improvement Logistics Manager), Karsen Miller (Sr. Transportation Analyst), and Tara Piirala (Customer Excellence Director & Women ERG Leader) as they dive into the realities of supply chain operations, cross-functional collaboration, and how mentorship and advocacy are key to driving more women into leadership roles. Adding a fresh perspective, Penn State student and future Henkel intern Kate McVay steps in as co-host, asking the critical questions every aspiring professional wants answered. From navigating bottlenecks to taking career leaps, negotiating raises, and betting on yourself—this episode is packed with insights and advice from women who’ve done it all.
