Ruth’s leadership not only shaped the trajectory of IC System but also inspired generations of women to break barriers in business and beyond

Taking the Helm: Ruth’s Leadership Journey

In 1961, Ruth took control of IC System at a time when women rarely held such influential positions in the business world. As a member of the founding family, she assumed leadership and steered the company to new heights. Under her guidance, Ruth instilled values that still resonate within IC System’s culture today—values like integrity, excellence, and a strong commitment to ethical business practices. Additionally, her vision helped set the foundation for the company’s success in the years that followed.

Ruth’s leadership was shaped by her unwavering belief in family values. She fostered an environment prioritizing respect, collaboration, and accountability, which in turn built a strong foundation for IC System’s reputation as a trusted leader in its industry. Furthermore, her dedication to excellence set a high standard for future leaders and ensured that integrity remained at the heart of the company.
