Breaking the Mold: Women Leading the Shift in Logistics

In an industry long dominated by men, a quiet transformation is unfolding. More women are stepping into roles once seen as out of reach, leading operations, driving strategy, and reshaping the workplace culture of logistics. This shift isn't just about representation — it's about redefining what leadership looks like in the supply chain space. In this episode, we explore how the logistics sector is evolving to become more inclusive and what meaningful change looks like on the ground.

Joining us in this conversation are two inspiring voices from Ninja Van Malaysia: Rilla Amrullah, the HR Director committed to building a meritocratic and supportive environment, and Norasfawilah Abdullah, Head of Recovery & OPEX, who has carved a path in one of the most operationally intense parts of the business. Together, they share how they’re challenging stereotypes, designing better workplaces for women, and accelerating progress in one of the most fast-moving industries today.
