SCM Faculty
We believe that economic development and human flourishing is driven by two primary market factors: economic growth and technology. From a Christian standpoint, flourishing goes beyond material wealth and includes the reconciliation of our relationships with God, self, humanity and creation. We can contribute to human flourishing through supply chain stewardship and transformative supply chain research, which extends beyond risk mitigation to encompass supply chain integrity and responsibility, aligning with the values of suppliers, customers, employees and stakeholders, and fostering economic and technological growth.
