Risk is a fact of life in business鈥攊t鈥檚 also an ever-present reality in times of war. Wars and armed conflicts embroil 60% of the developing world, and now Ukraine and Russia, posing a constant threat to commodity production, the flow of international supply chains, and the economic lifeblood of these nations.

On the latest episode of the Delve podcast, Desautels Professor Juan Camilo Serpa discusses how businesses can shield their supply chains in the face of war-related risk and how good international supply chain management keeps the door to peace open.

For the first time, I鈥檓 seeing supply chains used as a weapon for peace. The biggest lesson is that supply chains should not fear war, but war should fear supply chains. If we use them correctly, they can be extremely powerful for this.鈥�
