Part 1: Playing Politics with Supply Chains

Art of Procurement

There are two weeks to go until the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election. Interest, speculation, and tension have been building all year.

Most news coverage of the election is intended to sway voters, hyperbolic to a fault, and not tailored to the specific information needs of procurement and supply chain professionals. What we really need to know is what each major party candidate has said and what likely outcomes that would lead to.

In this four-part special series, we will cover the policies and plans of Democratic Candidate Vice President Kamala Harris and Republican Candidate Former President Donald J. Trump as well as how they compare.

Listen in as Kelly Barner kicks off the series by explaining:

• Why all procurement and supply chain professionals need to be prepared for either candidate to win
• The impact of tariffs, China, energy, and environmental policy on corporate strategy
• The rules of engagement and discussion that will apply in this series and the discussions that result
