Resilient Supply Chain — How Leaders Keep Business Moving

Resilient Supply Chain is for supply chain, operations, procurement and technology leaders who need practical ways to manage disruption, reduce risk and keep business moving.

Each Monday, technology and sustainability analyst, keynote speaker and former SAP Global VP Tom Raftery speaks with the executives, operators, founders and innovators redesigning how goods, information and decisions move through global supply chains.

These are candid conversations about what works in practice—not polished PR narratives or vague predictions. Guests explain how they are responding to supplier failures, geopolitical shocks, volatile costs, capacity constraints, changing regulations and rising pressure to improve both performance and sustainability.

The podcast examines:
Faster planning and decision-making under uncertainty
Supplier risk, sourcing strategy and business continuity
AI, automation, visibility and operational intelligence
Warehousing, logistics and fulfilment performance
Scope 3 emissions, circularity and responsible sourcing
The systems, incentives and organisational changes needed to turn data into action

The central question is simple: what helps a supply chain withstand disruption, adapt quickly and continue serving the business?

New episodes are published every Monday at 7am CET. Resilient Supply Chain+ subscribers also receive bonus analysis, highlights and briefings on emerging industry trends.

Follow Resilient Supply Chain for practical lessons from the people solving real operational problems—and building supply chains that perform when conditions do not go to plan.

Benjamin Price Laflamme

Benjamin Laflamme is Founder and Chief Product Officer of WildDucks, which builds autonomous supply chain intelligence for a world that won’t sit still.

Benji’s take: the industry has spent decades selling stability that never shows up. Plans drift the minute they’re made, and teams lose weeks in meetings chasing numbers that are already stale. He thinks that playbook is finished.

WildDucks runs planning and execution as one system, puts a real price on disruption, and lets leaders test a strategy and then actually carry it out autonomously, no endless meetings required. The goal isn’t trimming a few points off inventory. It’s fixing the structural problems the rest of the industry has learned to live with.
