In this first installment of a two-part series, I bring you a special interview with Patrick Bower, a supply chain expert with extensive experience and deep insights in the field. Fresh from the IBF Orlando conference, I ask Patrick some of the same tough questions I posed as moderator at the leadership forum. Join us as we dive into topics like S&OP, collaboration, transparency, and explore where we agree—and respectfully disagree—on the scope of S&OP/IBP. This episode offers a rare glimpse into the minds of top industry leaders and the strategic thinking that drives them forward.
