In this episode, we host Yossi Sheffi, MIT Professor and Director of the MIT Center for Transportation and Logistics (CTL), to discuss his latest book: “The New (Ab)Normal.” Defined as a must-read for Supply Chain Executives, we explore where the desire for writing this book came from and the advice that leaders can gain from it. What does the future of supply chain look like, and what are the significant trends that will characterize a now irreversibly-changed reality?
