For the fifth year, 40 of the industry's future leaders were honored at the Inland Marine Expo with the "40 Under 40" award, which recognizes individuals for their outstanding contributions to the inland marine transportation industry in a variety of fields. All 40 honor-ees were nominated by executives and peers for their hard work and dedication to the industry. Over the course of 10 weeks, The Waterways Journal is featuring recipients. This week we recognize Lance Eads, Jake England, James Gauthreaux and Michael Gore. Lance Eads, 36, is director of safety and security for Associated Marine Ser- vice. He has been with the company since 2016 and has several years of experience in the field of safety. "Since joining Associated Marine Service, Lance has shown the ability to work long days and weekends I without hesitation," said Joseph Powell, president of Maritime Defense Strategy LLC. He added that since the COVID-19 pandemic began, Eads has filled gaps when others have been off work, fulfilling his own job duties and those of a deckhand. "I have realized that a title means nothing to Lance and that he is genuinely out to ensure his people work safely," Powell said. |
