The Women In Trucking Association (WIT) is undergoing a leadership transition after Jennifer Hedrick, CAE, stepped down as president and CEO. Hedrick’s departure became effective August 5, 2026, ending a tenure that began in January 2023. During that period, she was responsible for overseeing the association’s operations, programs, events, and member engagement initiatives. WIT has appointed Lana Nichols, the association’s vice president, to serve as interim president and CEO. Nichols will lead the organization while its Board of Directors conducts a search for Hedrick’s permanent successor. The association has not yet announced a timeline for selecting or appointing its next president and CEO. Hedrick said she decided to leave the organization because she needs to focus on family matters. In announcing her departure, she expressed appreciation for WIT’s employees, members, and volunteers and highlighted the work accomplished during her time leading the organization. She also expressed confidence in WIT’s continued ability to advance its mission and serve the transportation community. WIT Board Chair Jennifer Plumlee, who also serves as vice president of managed logistics at J.B. Hunt Transport Services, thanked Hedrick for her service to the association. The board emphasized that maintaining continuity will be an important priority throughout the leadership change. According to the association, WIT has an experienced staff with nearly 50 years of collective experience within the organization. That institutional knowledge, combined with support from its Board of Directors and partner companies, is expected to help maintain programs and services while the search for permanent leadership moves forward. The leadership transition comes as Women In Trucking continues numerous initiatives designed to increase the participation and advancement of women throughout transportation. The association focuses on creating professional connections, recognizing industry achievements, supporting career development, conducting research, and providing programs that help both employees and trucking companies. One of WIT’s major ongoing research initiatives is the WIT Index, which measures women’s representation in transportation positions ranging from professional truck drivers to corporate executives. Its 2024-25 findings showed women holding approximately 28% of C-suite and executive positions, 34.5% of supervisory leadership roles, and 29.5% of board positions among participating organizations. For fleets and transportation employers, the association’s established programs provide resources for recruiting, developing, connecting, and recognizing women throughout the industry. FleetOwner noted that the eventual selection of a permanent CEO could influence WIT’s future priorities and how the association works with trucking companies, industry professionals, and corporate partners.… [TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago - Hack Back
President Donald Trump just gave the green light to American companies to carry out their own cyberattacks against hackers. This essentially allows for a new form of trench warfare, but one that possibly helps American companies become more formidable to those who seek to harm them. "Transnational Criminal Organizations (TCOs) pose a growing threat to American citizens, businesses, and national security," reads the memorandum Trump issued yesterday. "Through Executive Order 14390 of March 6, 2026 (Combating Cybercrime, Fraud, and Predatory Schemes Against American Citizens), I directed the Federal Government to take various actions to combat cyber‑enabled crime harming American citizens. This memorandum expands the fight against TCO-perpetrated cybercrime by incorporating the ingenuity of the private sector." Companies will increasingly be able to work with the Homeland Security and Justice Departments to counter criminal cyberattackers and defend their own data. "The move is a sharp pivot from decades of cybersecurity policy across Republican and Democratic administrations that generally prioritized improving corporate defenses and confined offensive cyberoperations to the U.S. military and intelligence agencies," reports The New York Times. In other words: This allows a much more offensive strategy. That said, major questions remain about how this will play out in practice. The memo says it must involve only transnational criminal organizations that are separate from foreign governments ("unless clear intelligence exists establishing such connection"), which is a high burden to clear. Little clarity exists about these types of groups, including who exactly they're composed of and who exactly they report to. "To some extent, the new order would align the United States more with some of its chief cyberantagonists, including China and Russia, where spy agencies have long relied on contract hackers working in the private sector to further their national security missions, in part to afford the state plausible deniability," notes the Times. Dario, our great moral leader: "When Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi invited AI leaders to a meeting in New Delhi earlier this year, security protocols allowed each executive to bring one additional person with them. Most brought colleagues, but Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei brought his wife, Cami Clark," reports The Wall Street Journal. "Clark doesn't work at Anthropic, but she is often seen sitting in the front row while Amodei talks at events such as Davos or can be found chatting up investors at gatherings such as the Allen & Co. conference in Sun Valley.
