The American Trucking Associations’ Safety Management Council recently presented Lisa Gonnerman, vice president of safety for Ruan Transportation Management Systems, with the 2016 National Safety Director Award. The award was presented at the ATA Safety, Security and Human Resources National Conference and Exhibition in Oklahoma City on Oct. 26. Under Gonnerman’s supervision, Ruan’s safety culture has been strengthened in large part because of her creation of MegaSafe7, Ruan’s proprietary safety program. The Des Moines-based company employs more than 5,600 drivers. Gonnerman, who has more than 24 years of experience in the industry, currently chairs the ATA Safety Management Council’s Regulations Committee.
