The ongoing driver shortage and its correlation to supply chain disruptions is a topic that has been on the minds of many supply chain professionals. As drivers continue to struggle for better working conditions, shippers are seeing challenges of their own.
Thanks to the extensive research at the MIT FreightLab, Dr. David Correll and his team have effectively debunked the theory that the supply chain is experiencing a labour shortage in the trucking sector. MIT’s data shows that our supply chain is in crisis due to the misutilization of available truckers, not from a lack of drivers.
With the help of celebrity podcast host, Dooner (aka: Timothy Dooner), this webcast will delve into the various points of view of four established supply chain professionals. The Carrier, the Shipper, the Solutions Provider, and the Data Expert will come together to share their experiences and insights while answering Dooner's tough questions on why the supply chain is still in crisis mode.
