Welcome to our newest Operations Management text feature–bimonthly podcasts on topics we think you and your OM students will find interesting.
Jay and I will be creating 8-9 minute podcasts–posted on this blog. They will be tied to specific chapters in the text. Assignable auto-graded exercises using this podcast (in the form of multiple choice questions) are available in our MyLab OM. To learn more about these assignments in MyLab, contact your Pearson rep at https://www.pearson.com/us/contact-us/find-your-rep.html
Today’s topic relates to Supplement 5, Sustainability in the Supply Chain. In it, we talk about new government regulations, the clothing industry, Apple, and greenhouse gasses. Let us know what you think. The next podcast will be released in two weeks on the topic of Blockchains.
