The LMI, a healthy recovery & tariff effects

The Intermodal Logistics Podcast

The Logistics Managers Index (LMI) tracks the freight market through thick and thin. Until recently, it's been thin, but head author Zac Rogers, Assistant Professor of Operations & Supply Chain Management at Colorado State University, tells us indications squarely point to a healthy recovery.
Zac tells us about his background, the origins of the Index, how it surveys logistics pros (and who they are), how it relates to the economy as a whole, what typically causes shifts and where it's heading now. Plus, we discuss how the election and incoming President Trump's suggested tariffs (and other policies) could influence the freight recovery.
And we talk a bit about teaching future supply chain pros along with the three pillars of sustainability to consider - beyond simply environmental benefits.
