Emerge OTA
Looking to Grow Within the Industry?
Do You Have an Emerging Leader in Your Organization?
The Ohio Trucking Association is excited to announce the launch of the 2025 EmergeOTA course, the premier leadership development program designed to prepare the next generation of trucking and transportation industry leaders.
This program begins with an in-person session where participants can meet their peers, receive a comprehensive introduction to the course materials, and prepare their projects for the remainder of the coursework. This will be followed up with five virtual sessions outlining the key focus areas of strategic planning, business finance, regulatory compliance, personal performance, and organizational leadership.
This course builds upon OTA’s previous collaboration with The Ohio State University’s Fisher College of Business and incorporates best practices from top business school programs. Participants will gain a comprehensive education in modern business leadership, combining theoretical insights with practical case studies drawn from transportation-related companies.
Graduates of EmergeOTA leave equipped with the skills and tools to make an immediate impact within their organizations.
This year’s program kicks off with the in-person opening session on Wednesday, March 12. The session will bring all attendees together to build connections and set the stage for a transformative learning experience.
