Almost every organisation on the planet is reliant on a supply chain of some description - and in this episode we unpack the challenges and major developments that have affected supply chains.
My guest is Pete Grett - Founder and CEO of the Blackrock Group. His career journey is an important part of his backstory, having started his working career as a temp employee in a warehouse.
Something must have struck a chord with Pete as he quickly rose to a leadership career in supply chain operations including senior roles at FedEx.
We touch on some of the 'front of mind' issues challenging supply chain leaders today - shipping incidents that block key supply chain infrastructure for days, weeks or even months, the emergence of artificial intelligence up and down the supply chain and of course, consumer demand for ever faster delivery times.
I really enjoyed this discussion with Pete - I hope you do too.
