Sustainable Supply Chain AI, Robotics, and the Evolution of Supply Chain: Insights from Prof Sečkin Ozkul of USF
In the latest episode of the Digital Supply Chain podcast, I had the privilege to delve deep with Prof Sečkin Ozkul, fromf the University of South Florida. We traversed the transformative landscape of supply chain management, its evolving trends, and the undeniable importance of sustainability in today's business world.
One of the episode's standout moments was Sečkin's point on the burgeoning demand for supply chain graduates. Employers today are actively on the lookout for these specialised graduates, recognising the unique skill set they bring to the table. It's no longer about stumbling into the field; it's about honing a craft that's increasingly becoming indispensable.
We also touched upon the exciting integration of AI in the supply chain curriculum and how students are being primed to harness its power. From AI's potential to revolutionize forecasting to its critical role in analytics, it's evident that the world of supply chain is rapidly evolving.
And, we talked about the increasing prevalence of robotics in warehouses? Sečkin's students are at the forefront, observing these changes firsthand and keenly understanding the implications.
Lastly, Sečkin's insights into the rising C-suite roles dedicated purely to supply chain dynamics underline its growing significance in global business strategies.
