James chats with two leading Australian supply chain academics and explores climate change, value chains, value-creation risk assessments, resilient business models and several other current and emerging issues.
Lots of good discussion points including recognising investment as the answer to value risk, the urgency of recognising and identifying multiple energy sources in your business, and the rapid change happening in the market place as consumers start demanding climate/ post carbon activities.
Melissa and Renu also describe university life today and the attitude and the focus of the next generation leaders of supply chain.
It’s a good chat, please enjoy!
