Women of Wheat Spotlight Series: Rebecca Benoit

At Ardent Mills, we're continuing to invest in elevating women's voices - both inside and outside of our industry - to work toward a future of enhanced diversity, equity and inclusion whether the very best talent has a seat at the table. 

One key program helping our efforts is Ardent Mills' Employee Resource Groups (ERGs). Ardent ERGs were established to foster a culture of inclusion and create a work environment where employees feel empowered to share and exchange ideas. The ERG focused on empowering the voices of women at Ardent Mills is "Women of Wheat" (WOW). 

This content series showcases the female team members at Ardent Mills who are putting the "wow" in WOW and paving the way for a more inclusive future. 

Our August team member spotlight is Rebecca Benoit, plant manager, Newton, Kansas. Read on to learn how Rebecca has watched the industry transform over the last ten years and how her leadership roles in milling have fostered a more open, honest dialogue for her colleagues.
