6th annual SC&LM workshop

The Human Side of Sustainable Supply Chains

December 10, 2021

The whole world runs on supply chains. And massive disruptions like pandemics and uncertainties around them once more proved the life-saving role of supply chain and logistics management (SC&LM). Amid emerging technologies to support efficiencies and under the pressing environmental, social, economic and cultural imperatives, where and how do we stand for humans that make the wheels of business move? Are people at the right place and well-equipped to tackle the big problems that we currently face and are waiting ahead? Which qualifications are essential for an employer or an employee in successfully managing sustainable supply chains (SSCs)? How do SSCs relate to United Nations Sustainable Development Goals? It is time we revisit the human side of SSCs.

The flagship event of the Rowe School of Business, sponsored by CRSSCA (Centre for Research in Sustainable Supply Chain Analytics), and organized by Dr. M. Ali lk羹, this series of annual SC&LM workshops not only brings in distinguished academics and industry leaders to share their knowledge on the latest trends and cutting-edge research and best practices in SC&LM, but also provides an excellent opportunity to cross-pollinate ideas and network with academics, practitioners and students in a highly collegial environment.
