This annual award from WIT highlights the crucial roles of influential leading women in the dynamic field of commercial transportation and logistics, which encompasses logistics service providers as well as motor carriers. Erin was selected for her outstanding contributions to supporting women in the workforce and demonstrated exceptional leadership in logistics across North America.

“What an immense honor it is to be selected as a winner for this year’s DWLA,” said Van Zeeland. “Looking back on my 29 years at Schneider, I feel so blessed to work at an organization that uplifts diverse points of view and experience in the workplace and provided me with a resilient skill set to get me where I am in my career today. The DWLA reflects my commitment to empower the next generation of leaders, and I’m excited to continue serving as a role model for others building careers in transportation and logistics.”

Erin is responsible for the strategy, execution and growth of the company’s fastest growing segment, Logistics, which has become a nearly $2 billion offering and includes brokerage, supply chain and distribution management and power-only services. She also oversees the company’s sales and marketing strategy and capability enablement in her capacity as CCO.

Her leadership extends beyond day-to-day business, as Erin also co-leads the Schneider Women’s Network, an organization developed with the intent to attract, develop and retain the best talent, and ensure nothing stands in the way of women growing their careers at Schneider.
