March 01, 2021 Las decisiones no son decisivas: Director Ejecutivo del Máster en Supply Chain Management del MIT
¡Bienvenido al primer episodio de Supply Chain Now en Español!
Josué es orignario de Jalapa, Veracruz, Mexico y se describe como una persona : apasionada, entusiasta, adaptable y creativa lo cual transmite de manera amable y clara a través de sus anécdotas, estudios e investigaciones profesionales. En su autonombrado rol de Inspirar a la comunidad a resolver los problemas de la humanidad, Josué nos platica como la logística y en particular las cadenas de suministro juegan un papel muy importante en el éxito de las pequeñas y micro empresas.
De una manera lógica y contundente Josué nos comparte las características principales del éxito de las micro y pequeñas empresas en Latino América. Y reconoce que aunque cada segmento, industria y región tienen variables diferentes existen algunas similitudes que las empresas exitosas comparten. De sus estudios identifica tres y un error muy común.
1) Las empresas enfocadas en crecer, cambiar aprender y evolucionar tiene más probabilidad de ser exitosos (tienes que querer crecer)
2) Sin embargo, la prioridad inmediata no puede ser crecer tu base de clientes (esto es un error estratégico de muchas empresas, quieren crecer y se lanzan a buscar mas clientes)
3) Los estudios demuestran que la prioridad debe ser enfocarte a administrar la calidad de tus productos y/ o servicios (garantizar que cuando el cliente te pide algo tu eres capaz de preparar el producto una y otra vez (replicarlo) con la misma calidad y en un tiempo de entrega eficiente
4) Después de tener eso amarrado entonces si lo siguiente es : Crecer clientes
Una primera entrevista que nos deja con mucha información sumamente relevante y en algunos casos sorprendente de como micro y pequeñas empresas en Latino América pelean por su sobrevivencia ante un sistema ineficiente y en muchos casos abusivo. La tenacidad, determinación y trabajo de millones de empresarios es admirable; los resultados de las investigaciones de Josué y su equipo de del MIT simplemente impactantes.
No dejen de escuchar detenidamente este, nuestro primer episodio de Supply Chain Now en Español y muchas gracias a nuestro invitado de honor : Josué C. Velázquez

February 24, 2021 Rethinking Supplier (Information) Management with Jeffrey Ostrander and Ragnar Lorentzen
Procurement is currently being faced with two parallel challenges: to improve the supplier experience and also to improve the quality of the data that we gather from and make available to suppliers. One challenge is relational, and the other is transactional, but we have to address them both at the same time if we are going to realize the full ROI of either.
In this podcast based on a Dial P for Procurement livestream, Jeffrey Ostrander, Head of Supply Transactions, Western Hemisphere for Schlumberger, and Ragnar Lorentzen, Chief Commercial Officer at HICX, join co-hosts Kelly Barner and Scott Luton to share their perspectives on the huge potential of collaborative supplier partnerships, including the strategic value of trustworthy data.
