How to Turn Global Turmoil into a Competitive Supply Chain Advantage

What if geopolitics is no longer background noise in your supply chain, but the defining factor of your competitive advantage? In this episode of Supply Chain Optimizers, host Diego Solorzano speaks with Maria Villablanca, transformation advisor, and three-time founder, HBR Advisory Council Member, and CEO of Villablanca Consulting Ltd, about how trade policy, AI, and regional shifts are redefining competitive advantage in supply chains. Maria shares a powerful three-question framework for cutting through crisis noise, the mindset shift needed to thrive amid disruption, and why today’s supply chain leaders must think like economists, strategists, and geopoliticians to stay ahead.
