Given the far-ranging impact of the global supply chain, this year's UNC World View’s Richardson Lecture is structured as a panel discussion representing interests of business people, community, and educators who help North Carolina students understand the changes affecting their families, their state, and the world. Jay Swaminathan, UNC-Kenan Flagler distinguished professor and expert on the global supply chain, and Derick Close, CEO and owner of Springs Creative Products Group, Carolina Manufacturing, and Springsteen Logistics and a UNC-Chapel Hill alumnus, will share their expertise and experiences. Stephanie Morgan, a math teacher at Pisgah High School in Haywood County, frequent World View participant, and UNC-Chapel Hill alumna will provide her perspective on the importance of teaching about relevant global issues in North Carolina classrooms. With introductions provided by UNC Vice Provost for Global Affairs, Ambassador (ret.) Barbara Stephenson and moderated by Tim Humphrey, IBM Chief VP, Chief Data Office; North Carolina Senior State Executive; and UNC World View Council of Advisor, the panel will address this global situation which affects all people across North Carolina and beyond.
