Supply chain professional with 15 years of software, manufacturing & supply chain management experience. B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Drexel University and MBA from Villanova University. Over the years, I've found that there is a significant lack of training resources for supply chain management. Available training is either too academic or not specific to supply chain management. This is what led me to offer training based on actual experience. The goal is to allow participants in the program to focus on what really matters and hit the ground running.
