Women in Maritime Operations (WIMOs) has announced Taylor Dickerson of Kirby Corporation as the organization's new national president. Dickerson takes over the presidency from Holly Normand of Ingram Barge Line, who will help to transition her into the role, the organization said. The position is a five-year term. Dickerson is vice president of the Project Management Office for Kirby. The position requires managing the company's portfolio of executive-level projects in environmental sustainabili-ty, technology advancement and inno- vation, mergers and acquisitions, corporate strategy, process improvement and efficiency and analytics, among others. As Dickerson has also served as the WIMOs treasurer, WIMOs has opened nominations through May 20 for those interested in serving in that position. As the treasurer position requires travel, the nominee's company must provide permission to serve in the role, if elected. Dickerson started her career in the maritime industry in 2008 with Kirby. She has served in several roles within the company, including within the logistics, sales, operations, maintenance, safety and finance divisions before moving to her current role in special projects. |
