Reshaping Business and Supply Chain Strategy Beyond Covid-19 with Professor Yossi Sheffi

In this MicroMasters® course live event, we are very fortunate to have a conversation with the MIT CTL Director, Professor Yossi Sheffi.

Drs. Bateman and Borrella will host Professor Sheffi to discuss his latest work on resilient supply chains and his newly published book, The New (Ab)Normal.

Sheffi is an expert in supply chain management and is the author of five award-winning books.

Under his leadership, MIT CTL has launched many educational, research, and industry/government outreach programs, including the MIT SCALE network involving six academic centers around the world. In 2016, MIT CTL launched the online supply chain management MicroMasters program, reaching more than 350,000 learners worldwide.

In this discussion, we will hear key insights from his latest book on how the Covid-19 pandemic impacted business, supply chains, and society. He will also discuss the critical role supply chains play in helping people, governments, and companies to manage the crisis.

The event will be an engaging conversation with live Q&A and polls.

Yossi Sheffi's insights on the impact of COVID-19 and the highs and lows of supply chain responses are excellent. Just began his new book and look forward to his other ones as well.

As always, spot on with your analysis on “Issues of Concern”. My question is, will this new Labor globalization contribute to losses in jobs? If yes, how does one retain relevance in such new climes?
