National Grid fleet manager Lorna McAtear has received the Barbara Cox Woman of the Year Award at an event to mark International Women’s Day.
Now in its third year, the award, which is run in partnership with AM and its sister title Fleet News, is named after Barbara Cox, the business pioneer who served as director of Cox Enterprises, Cox Automotive’s parent company in the USA.
It recognises a woman that demonstrates a commitment to innovation, leadership or community, and awards £5,000 for her to spend on her own personal development.
Almost 300 people from across the automotive industry attended the virtual event today (March 8) as part of Cox Automotive’s Women With Drive programme, which aims to promote diversity in the automotive industry.
