This book is my attempt to answer that question. It's a story about supply chains, but it's also a story about how we think. How do we balance speed with resilience? Efficiency with equity? Certainty with uncertainty? As I've learned, the answers to these questions lie not just in technology or policy but in trust. Erick C. Jones, Ph.D., is one of the few individuals in the world with the rare combination of leadership experience in academia, government service, and industry. His work sits at the cutting edge of innovation in; "Auto Sensing, Supply Chain Optimization, Manufacturing Technology, Workforce Development, The integration of trade, economic, and sustainability perspectives" In ReShore: How the Pandemic and Global Crises are Redefining Supply Chains for a Sustainable Future, Erick distills his life's work into a powerful and actionable framework.
