2022 Supply Chain Predictions with Knut Alicke (Partner, McKinsey)

Today's guest on the show is Knut Alicke. Knut is partner at
McKinsey. He’s based in McKinsey’s Stuttgart office where he is
leader of the firm’s work in manufacturing and supply chain. He
advises clients on a variety of topics including supply chain
management, digital supply chains and advanced analytics, and
supply chain transformations. Knut is also the author of a highly
regarded book on supply chain management, and a professor at
University of Karlsruhe, teaching supply chain management. We asked
Knut to give us his Supply Chain Predictions for 2022 and the
conversation turned into a discussion on a variety of topics like
the increased visibility of supply chain as a function, labour
shortages and mismatches and the role that automation plays,
container shipping rates, logtech startups and so much more. This
