Flexibility for the Future: How Disruption Fosters Innovation

Register here

Like never before, companies have learned during the pandemic to pivot quickly across multiple dimensions. They ramped up production, changed their processes, and adopted new technologies, at speed unimaginable before the crisis. In only six weeks, contract manufacturer Flex ramped up its ability to produce ventilators while New Balance designed and produced thousands of masks, in a matter of days. Such transformations can afford many successful companies with new competitive advantages.

In this LinkedIn Live conversation, you will learn how two companies use these lessons to set themselves up for the post-pandemic future in the B2B and B2C markets.

In this LinkedIn Live event, Lynn Torrel, Chief Supply Chain and Procurement Officer at Flex and Dave Wheeler, COO at New Balance, will join MIT CTL Director Yossi Sheffi for a conversation about the lessons learned during the pandemic, leadership lessons, and their views about what will supply chains look like in the future.
