Winnebago recently announced on its LinkedIn that Kim Weckert, vice president of digital transformation and marketing, has been named a 2025 Women MAKE Award honoree by The Manufacturing Institute (MI), the workforce development and education affiliate of the National Association of Manufacturers.
“I feel powerful when igniting transformation that creates lasting impact. With vision, courage and intention, providing leadership that drives change — empowering individuals, strengthening communities, inspiring movements and redefining what’s possible,” Weckert was quoted as saying on Winnebago’s LinkedIn post.
Weckert has been at the forefront of Winnebago’s digital transformation, the company said, revolutionizing the customer experience with innovations like Winnebago Connect — a smart-RV platform that lets users monitor and control key RV functions remotely. Weckert’s current project is a full digital transformation of the company’s manufacturing system. When complete, Weckert’s work will create a digital thread that follows a customer and their product throughout the entire consumer experience.
