This episode of Logistics with Purpose, powered by Supply Chain Now, features Steve Stirling. As President and CEO since 2014, Steve Stirling brings a wealth of experience as well as a unique perspective to MAP International. While a child in post-war Korea in the early 1960s, Steve suffered a life-altering bout with polio – a disease that could have been prevented with a few cents-worth of medication. It was a disease that made Steve dedicate his life to bring critically needed medicines and health supplies to some of the world’s poorest people.

Before assuming the role of President and CEO of MAP International, he held executive-level positions with nonprofits including with Child Fund International, Heifer International, Universal Life Sciences, ChildHelp and WorldVision US. Additionally, he worked for pharmaceutical companies that include the makers of Tylenol, Advil, and Bristol-Myers-Squibb/Mead Johnson Nutritionals. Steve earned his bachelor’s degree in Agricultural Economics at Cornell University and his MBA in Marketing and Finance at Northwestern University. Steve and his wife, Sook Hee, have two grown children.
