Redwood Connections: Recent Episodes
Redwood Logistics
Introducing the "Redwood Connections" podcast - condensing the best ideas and insights into bite-size morsels for your audio consumption.
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound impact on the supply chain, as well as the careers of women – but it’s not all negative. In fact, recent research showed leadership pipelines strengthened over the past year, improving diversity and inclusion across the board. More than ever before, supply chain organizations are prioritizing attracting, developing, retaining, and advancing women.
Both the supply chain and women have proven to be resilient in the face of one of the biggest modern-day challenges. In this informative webinar, we host a panel of esteemed female industry leaders for a lively discussion on overcoming supply chain obstacles.
This discussion will unpack the why regarding the low number of military members in the logistics industry, and the steps organizations can take to attract and hire more veterans.
The COVID-19 crisis has disrupted the supply chain industry in ways we’ve never seen before.
This volatile market is asking us to rise up to the challenge and strategize in an extraordinary terrain, while also being asked to take on additional roles and responsibilities we are unprepared for. No one is experiencing business as usual, but women especially are facing some distinct challenges. One in four women are considering downshifting their careers or leaving the workforce due to Covid-19.
