Description
COVID-19 has had a tremendous impact on the US economy, society, markets, and businesses. Businesses are responding to the crisis with changes to supply chains, warehousing, storage, distribution, human resources, strategic alliances, and other approaches. This program will bring together leaders of four businesses to discuss lessons that all companies should learn from the pandemic and the changes they should be making.
Speakers
Michael Rodenberg, Chairman and CEO, Murakami Manufacturing, USA, Inc.; Director, Murakami Corporation North & South America
Eric Sauvage, President, LBX Company
Phil Poindexter, President, Stock Yards Bank & Trust Company, Inc.
Todd Dorsey, Director, Topy America Inc.
Moderator - Dr. Robert Brown, Chair of Japan/America Society of Kentucky
Each leader will speak about their company’s experiences, discuss with the other panelists their approaches and share ideas, and answer questions from our participants.
Proposed topics to be addressed by each Leader:
- How was your organization affected?
- Are there any changes that can be made to adjust for future threats?
- What threats do you think businesses should start thinking about and addressing now? What 800-pound gorilla is out there that we do not see?
- What do you recommend that all companies should do to prepare for the future?
- How can companies identify threats and what should they do? Which departments and officers should be involved and who should lead the effort?
- What time frame should be taken to complete the review? What time frame should be covered by the review (e.g., one year, three years, five years, or longer)?
- When should any plan arising from this effort be reviewed and amended?
