The Program

What is Women of the Revolution?

Women of the Revolution is a global recognition program founded by Sheri Hinish, the Supply Chain Queen®, to surface and celebrate the women reshaping supply chain, sustainability, procurement, and logistics at every level of the ecosystem.

Nominations are open, and self-nominations are welcome

This is not a ranking. It is a declaration.

The program deliberately refuses a single-axis definition of influence. A government minister designing climate policy in Mexico and a founder building community for women in trucking are both revolutionaries. The criteria honor depth, originality, and irreversible impact, not job title or institutional affiliation alone.

The 2026 class spans startups and Fortune 500 enterprises, academia and advocacy, and every major region. It is the Supply Chain Queen community's way of saying that the revolution is already happening and these women are leading it.

"The revolution does not wait for permission. It is already in motion, and these women are its architects."
