It’s been nearly a year and a half since the pandemic brought supply chains around the globe to a screeching halt. As the wheels of commerce begin to churn, we’ll learn which changes were temporary, which are permanent and which were accelerated by COVID.

On this episode of Talking Supply Chain, Lieb explains why supply chain managers are rethinking their network strategies, and what impact, if any, the trend might have on jobs.
