Mike Griswold is the Vice President of Research at Gartner, specializing in retail with a particular focus on forecasting and replenishment. He is responsible for Gartner’s annual Top 25 Supply Chain ranking and joins Supply Chain Now on a monthly basis to discuss the latest in retail supply chains from an analyst’s perspective.
The inspiration for this session is music – the best bands, album titles, song lyrics - even the best concert-going experience. But with Mike Griswold in attendance, every musical favorite also has a tie-in to the supply chain… and Mike is always right on key.
In this episode, Mike draws on his broad musical tastes to put 2023 into context for co-hosts Scott Luton and Kelly Barner:
• Crystal Ball by Styx: What if companies had been able to see the last three years in advance? How would it have changed their preparation and approach?
• Roll With the Changes from REO Speedwagon: Operating environments, customers, and how we go to market are all different – so our supply chains need to change as well
• Always Look on the Bright Side of Life, Monty Python: We may be consumed with short-term challenges, but there is always a tomorrow and another chance to get things right
