3 PROBLEMS Finding Talent For Supply Chain

Mike and La discuss the main 3 problems which is preventing new young talent joining the industry of supply chain. One of the reasons is the rise in interest from the younger generation revolving around technology, coding and automation. Children no longer want to be policeman or firetruck drivers, they look up to individuals such as Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk and companies like Apple and Facebook and are learning coding from as early as primary school.

The second reason are hybrid companies such as Amazon which are not a logistics company and the third problem is the status quo of how the shipping industry is run.
