Introduction 3 lectures 23:36 1. Introduction to the Course Introduction to Supply Chain Coordination and the contents of this course. 2. Course Structure 3. Your Instructor Hi! My name is Jorge (or George, in English) and I am your instructor.I was born and grown in Colombia, and by my mid-20's I left the country for further studies iun Europe. Currently I reside in Austria and teach online alongside my active professional life as an engineer.I am an industrial engineer with +7 experience in Supply Chain Management and Logistics positions in world-wide industrial companies like Schott Glass, Caterpillar Motors, and RHI Magnesita Refractories, as well as in two entrepreneurial projects.My education has always been focused in the operations and technical sides of businesses, concluding a Bachelor in Science degree in Logistics and Production Management (5 years program), at Universidad Del Rosario (Bogotá, Colombia), and further Master in Science studies in Supply Chain Management (2 years program) at Wirtschaftsuniversität Wien (Vienna, Austria).I share my passion for teaching together with my professional life, enabling me to provide real insights, practical examples, and a very pragmatic and realistic point of view about all topics I teach to my students.I also am quite inclined to the idea that it is "doers", not managers, who ultimately make companies and industries work, overcome obstacles, and exceed limitations. That's why my approach to teaching any topic is to provide the following:
  • Deep, full understanding of the topic.
  • Actionable strategies and tools to implement.
  • Worst-case scenarios, to be prepared for.
  • Support and direct contact for questions, comments, discussions, open criticism, etc.
