The future of supply chain.
Change Has a Pattern, built for supply chain leaders. The cycle every big change follows, applied to the forces reshaping your world right now. Your people walk out ready for it.
The supply chain has been here before.
The container. The barcode. ERP. Just-in-time. Every one of them was a jetpack that promised efficiency, and every one followed the same cycle: enormous gains, hidden fragility, a shock that exposed it, and then the operators who redesigned for resilience rather than pure efficiency taking the next era.
AI, autonomous logistics, and provenance systems are the current jetpack. Sam co-founded a company that brought trust to global supply chains, so this one is personal as well as pattern.
In this keynote, Sam Rad shows supply chain leaders the cycle every big change follows, why the new tools aren't paying off yet, and the four moves that turn the corner. The pattern has repeated for five thousand years, which is why it lands with any room in this industry.
The four moves
See the pattern. Let go of the old way. Lead the jetpack. Take it off. The arc underneath: recognition, reassurance, challenge, agency, practice, hope.
We don't have an adoption problem. We have a reinvention problem. The returns happen after you redesign.
Three forces Sam maps on stage.
Governments. Fortune 500s. Global institutions.
Sam has keynoted on five continents for organizations including Cisco, Dell, SAP, the United Nations, the World Economic Forum, and the Federal Reserve Bank.
