The Power of Logistics | Terry Esper | TEDxOhioStateUniversitySalon

[LogisticsWorldz]

Logistics is what I train, teach, train, and mentor people on. It is a big part of my life. Anyone who is not in logistics needs to take a look into it as a career. It is an amazing industry that can change your life.

[TriptoCo]

Been in logistics for 20 years. All modes. Ground, ocean, air, intermodal etc. Have loved every second of it.

People are used to using logistics for make to grow a company, to the product crosses borders or make known something from my country etc; Sometimes we ignore that logistics is to connect us, for communication between society, nations, between the world.
The COVID-19 is an example, because medicines, equipment and even people are sent.
However, everything has advantages and disadvantages; a disadvantage is that the human being stays at home because they receives everything at the door, but this action also reduces time, companies innovate their services, and in the case of the COVID-19, the sales aren't longer face-to-face.
On the other hand, I had no idea of ​​the discrimination a person could experience when is buying something, but now I will apply it and change my conception of what logistics is.

Connecting your vocational purpose to your personal experience is critical in gaining a renewed sense of respect for what you do and what niche your work fulfills in society . Tying logistics and supply chain management to the dignity that anonymity brought to the African American was brilliant. Proud to call Dr. Esper a friend, colleague and now a thought leader in this industry!!

[fellipevianavaz]

It' was fantastic, a mix of logistic, history and psychology

[kidanemetadel]

I've watched a ton of TED Talks through my undergrad and graduate years, this was by far the best! Thank you for this, I certainly learned a ton and have a new respect for logistics.

[Ben-uvkj]

Very well done. I'm proud to count this amazing human being as a friend. Keep it up, Dr. Esper!

Оооо доктор Эспер. Обожаю его слушать. Это удивительная индустрия. Она может изменить нашу жизнь. Я верю ему. Я его рассматриваю как карьеру для себя. Отличная речь!!! Я многому научилась и по новому уважаю логистику😊

I loved this video. Our purpose is so key and seeing how logistics can fit into the society and evoke feelings of dignity was a perspective shift. This really makes you want to dive deep into what else we do and what it can impact.

I work in logistics and what I say that I do is deliver memories to the dinner table. Our company is in poultry and we are the hens on your table at Christmas or the chicken on your pizza or in your chicken salad. Delivering memories connects much more than if I said I ship chicken from A to B.

How HUGE impact it makes to hear about sth from sb who LOVES the thing rather than from a formal article or what! Just wonderful 💫

[natalimazur]

It was great speech!!! I am studying logistics at the moment in College and you have inspired me to try to make this world a better place with the help of my proffession! Thank you!

[savvysabe]

This was the "talk" I desired as I switch career paths. Thank you!

[bifidoc]

this is good philosophy
when a person does something he/she needs to make it personal, otherwise result won't be alive

[rakeshmallick]

Wow how beautifully this professor put things together. How a conceptual system when implemented can change lives. It was really a wonderful TedX Talk

[natanguilhermelima]

It's a mindblow. It's beautiful, logistics is my life.

[phlip]

Very powerful presentation! Some of this background I already knew, some I didn't. I've been in transportation and logistics for 6.5 years. I've lately struggled with with wondering if this industry is for me... This presentation gives me a newfound sense/appreciation for what I do and also for what all participants directly and indirectly contribute to the field. I want to say thank you for all your commitment and passion to the field! Very sincerely.

[skipmcgrath]

Great talk. I run a cabinet shop in Toronto and do mostly kitchen renovations. People in the home renovation industry don't think enough about logistics. Good logistics makes the difference between a home renovation being an exiting adventure for the client or soul destroying financial disaster. I read a book on spray painting a few years back, and the author said the efficiency of your paint operation will not depend on how fast you can spray but how quickly you can move things in and out of your paint booth. This applies to just about everything in construction.

[GodwinEffa]

Insightful, inspiring, Compeling delivery.

[TSquared]

As one who was bitten by the supply chain management bug 12 years ago as an MBA student, this was a damn-good talk.
