The Supply Chain Buzz for August 16th, Featuring Kevin L. Jackson

The Supply Chain Buzz is Supply Chain Now’s regular Monday livestream, held at 12n ET each week. This show focuses on some of the leading stories from global supply chain and global business, always with special guests – the most important of which is the live audience!

In this episode of The Buzz, Supply Chain Now Co-hosts Scott Luton and Greg White welcome Kevin L. Jackson, Host of Digital Transformers, to discuss post-COVID supply chains and sustainability trends. As Kevin points out, all supply chain improvement initiatives – agility, sustainability, diversity, and inclusion – have to start with transparency. To cover this week’s top stories, Scott, Greg, and Kevin engage with a live Monday audience to discuss:

• How companies are rethinking their digital transformation strategies based on what they learned over the last year

•Advancements in ‘digital on premise,’ from restaurants to airports, and what that is likely to mean for the customer experience going forward

• What is the best cut of steak, where should you go to order one, and is it acceptable to use steak sauce?
