Distribution and logistics systems are becoming faster, smarter, and more automated.

Speed isn't the challenge.  Continuity is.

As warehouses deploy robotics, forecasting tools, and AI-enabled routing, human judgment remains essential. Leadership decisions now sit on top of automated systems, governing safety, efficiency, and resilience when conditions change faster than models can adapt.


This Industry Pathways Event explores what it takes to operate and lead inside modern logistics and distribution environments. Participants will hear directly from professionals managing national and global networks about how careers grow, how skills translate, and what organizations need as automation scales.


For veterans and military spouses, this event provides context before commitment.
 For employers, it offers early engagement with talent experienced in mission-critical operations.
