James R. Stock is a University of South Florida Distinguished University Professor and Frank Harvey Endowed Professor of Marketing. He has interviewed many of the greatest minds in transportation logistics, a practice area we call supply chain management today. He shared those interviewed with the Supply Chain Doctor, Chris Barnes, to be republished as part of the Supply Chain is Boring program.

In this interview, Stock speaks with Kenneth B. Ackerman, a well-known warehousing guru, consultant, and Army Veteran about his experience in the military, what it was like taking over the family business from his father, and why it pays off to be a “reasonable risk taker.”

Listen to their conversation to learn more about this well-known luminary in supply chain management.
