This video is a presentation by Dr. Patrick Dixon MD. Dr. Dixon is a global thought leader as a futurist, thinking about medicine, society, epidemiology , business, supply chain and logistics. Chairman of Global Change Ltd, Dr. Dixon is author of twelve books (printed in 19 languages) including Futurewise.
His take in the attached 37 minute presentation is kind of a "what if' scenario. What if...we were hit with a major avian flue epidemic...what if...50% of the transport drivers were scared to come to work?...what if... ?
We spend a lot of time with mundane optimization issues, but what if... ?? Does your company have a strategic emergency plan? Have you even thought of the global impact? My thought is probably not. You would not be alone. Repeat after me...
"Thank God I'm alive to make bottom line profit
Then stay to the end of the video and listen to Patrick Dixon talk about the human values of work vs family values etc., that logistics helps to enable.
