In this episode we talk with Dr. Brian Sauser, a prominent figure in supply chain management education in North Texas and beyond. Dr. Sauser shares his unique journey from studying agriculture at Texas A&M, to leading a lab working on life support systems for Mars missions at NASA, to academia, where he is the Chair of the Supply Chain Management Department at the University of North Texas which was ranked as the #4 undergrad supply chain management program by Gartner in 2024. The conversation explores the evolution of supply chain as a gritty industry to one of technology and innovation, the concept of supply networks rather than linear supply chains, and the need for degree programs to focus 80% on core knowledge like the bullwhip effect and 20% on the current and future trends like AI. While the industry and profession has peaked in visibility post-Covid, there is still a need to generate greater awareness of supply chain careers among high school students and community college students to draw in future practitioners.
Key Takeaways:
- The supply chain field has evolved significantly in recent years thanks to technology that enables end-to-end supply chain visibility and control.
- AI is a valuable tool but should not replace critical thinking. Don't leave all of the "I" in the "AI".

- Awareness is essential for attracting the future logistics workforce.
