One of my favorite supply chain academics is Dr. Chris Caplice, executive director of MIT'S Center for Transportation and Logistics, because he leads research that is in the end highly practical and usually quite relevant for real supply chain professionals. He also adds to that an ability to articulate that research very effectively - both qualities not so common in academia.
So we were very pleased to have him as the keynote speaker during our recent Transportunties on-line conference and exhibit, and I had a good time doing a video interview with him for that event on "Three Myths of Transportation Management."
It was very good, so I am going to take the easy route this week and summarize Caplice's presentation.
