Welcome back Lets Talk listeners!

Even I didn't know what a Global Service Supply Chain Partner was until I met Ryan, so what is it anyway? You will have to tune into the episode to find out but what I can tell you is that it not only manages the most complex parts of a supply chain but it can also be compared to Football.

In Ryan's most recent Linkedin article, he says "Just like a football team, service supply chain and service delivery requires the following to achieve the highest levels of success: planning, strong leadership, impeccable timing and precise execution."

Join me in this episode as I interview Ryan Miller, Vice President of Global Marketing with Flash Global. You will learn about end to end supply chain, which industries truly need a global service partner, what it means to have a 911 environment, the benefits or ROI of working with a global service supply chain partner and how communication is the key to everything.

The fact is that Supply Chain visibility is the No 1 pain point of shippers today, as per the study JOC did in 2018. What is visibility? It is knowing were your goods are in transit and it is the key to improving and strengthening our supply chains through data being available to all parties including the customer.

What other industries have been able to provide visibility to their customers and how can we learn from them. Jim shares he thoughts on how Netflix is a great example and something we can all resonate with and learn from.

Join me in this episode as I interview Jim Hayden, The CTO of Savi Technology. Jim takes us on a journey about the challenges supply chain faces when it comes to visibility, how you can achieve better performance with visibility, How Netflix is a good example and something we can all learn from and finally what you can put in practice today to get started in your supply chain visibility strategy.

Whether you are the family in a family business or working in a family business, it can be motivating, it can be awkward and it can be tough no matter what side of the fence you sit on.

These are the facts -  Family-owned businesses employ 60% of the U.S. workforce and create 78% of all new jobs. Only 13% of family businesses remain in the family for longer than 60 years. 30% of family-owned businessesmake it to the second generation while only 12% make it to the third
