ST. LOUIS, Dec. 11, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Enterprise Holdings Inc. today announced the promotion of Christine  Taylor to President and Chief Operating Officer and the promotion of Carolyn Kindle Betz to President of the Enterprise Holdings Foundation. The move makes both senior executives among the highest-ranking women in the global car rental, automotive and travel industries. The promotions mark another milestone for the rising third generation of family ownership of the company, which owns the Enterprise Rent-A-Car, National Car Rental and Alamo Rent A Car brands.

"It's fitting that these two talented women – granddaughters of our company's founder, Jack Taylor – are moving up together as members of our senior leadership team," said the company's Chief Executive Officer Pam Nicholson.

Taylor, 42, previously was the company's Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, a position she assumed in 2016. In her new role, Taylor will direct the company's global business operations and oversee its product development and technology innovation efforts, with a special emphasis on ensuring that any new technology the company deploys supports its commitment to deliver a superior customer experience. She will continue to serve as a member of the corporate board of Enterprise Holdings Inc. and will report to Nicholson.
