LTSC™ Sustainability Programs
Women in supply chain™ since January 2018
The Women in supply chain™, or WISC, series shares the stories of women who are doing amazing things in supply chain.
With each episode or blog, they inspire and encourage others to step into the industry and envision what a career could look like for them, for others in the industry to lean in and understand the journeys and to share advice/learnings and mistakes along the way.
Blended Podcast since October 2020
Blended is the newest conversation in diversity and inclusion bringing together people from all walks of life to share their perspectives, their stories, debate beliefs in a safe space. Everyone comes as strangers and leaves as friends feeling heard, feeling seen and changing the hearts and minds of those in the workspaces around them. It takes honesty, bravery and authenticity to see change and make an impact and we do that one episode at a time.
