Women Driven Mobility: Rethinking the Way the World Moves
Where do women fit into the automotive industry? In every possible space—including those they have yet to invent. As Katelyn Shelby Davis and Kristin Shaw demonstrate in Women Driven Mobility, women are in leadership roles in all aspects of the industry. Once barriers are removed, women can expand their influence and create more impactful work. Davis and Shaw seek to bring awareness and reroute this through a series of case studies that elevates the voices of women working in 11 vital pillars of the mobility industry: awareness and community advocacy, design and engineering, funding, infrastructure, marketing and communications, mobility on demand, placemaking, policy and legislation, sustainability and climate resilience, talent and education, and technology and innovation.
“This is not about solving problems we anticipate tomorrow. Applied autonomy can solve real accessibility challenges facing society today.”

“Whether you're part of the transportation industry, a multimodal fan, an innovator or are exploring career opportunities in mobility, this book will prove a fascinating study. A wide variety of projects led by women are summarized and serve as guides to what's possible when it comes to connecting communities. A celebration, exploration and toolkit all in one book.”

“Women Driven Mobility is an insightful book that provides a glimpse into the future of mobility. It tells the stories of women who are leading us into our future and driving change. Transportation has been overwhelmingly male for the last 100 years, but that's changing. The women featured here vary in age, background and experiences. I hope this book inspires other women to enter into the field.”
