Supply chain expert Tompkins educates businesses on successful operations after COVID-19 in upcoming webinars

May 12, 2020

After releasing his latest playbook, “Restarting the Economy: Guidance for Public and Private Leaders,” Jim Tompkins, founder and chairman of Tompkins International, will join two upcoming webinars to help supply chain professionals resume operations after COVID-19.

Friday, May 15 at 11am EST: Tompkins will lead the Institute of Industrial & Systems Engineers (IISE) Global Webinar of the Month, “Restarting the Economy: Guidance on the Backside of the Disruption,” where he will share his detailed strategies for how companies can prepare to do business in the not-so-normal conditions over the next 6-18 months.
Wednesday, May 20 at 9:30am EST: Tompkins will discuss the impacts of innovative and crisis disruptions on supply chains and commerce and how companies must continuously improve, transform and reinvent for success in the webinar, “VUCA: How Do We Get Back to Better?”
Tompkins has been steering the development of Tompkins International’s COVID-19 Resources, an online hub of educational and thought leadership content that focuses on the impacts of COVID-19, successful supply chain reinvention strategies and other related topics to help businesses flourish in times of VUCA—volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity.
“While the world has been focused on controlling, avoiding and eliminating the public health risks associated with COVID-19, this pandemic has been wreaking havoc on our global economy,” said Tompkins. “These webinars will explore how businesses can successfully restart operations and adapt to the ‘new normal’ moving forward.”
