Top 10 Talking Logistics Videos and Posts in 2016

As 2016 comes to an end, a quick thank you to all of our readers, followers, and sponsors for another great year of learning and conversation on Talking Logistics. The numbers speak for themselves:

37 episodes produced in 2016, totaling more than 1,100 minutes of conversations with thought leaders and newsmakers in the supply chain and logistics industry.

212 posts published on a wide range of timely and important industry topics, including the most comprehensive weekly news roundup in the industry and thought-provoking and insightful guest commentaries from our sponsors.

More than 116,900 followers on LinkedIn and Twitter combined (a 137 percent increase from last year), including 3,650+ CXOs, 3,400+ VPs, and 5,400+ Directors across many vertical industries and geographies.

More than 60 podcasts on iTunes of our past episodes.

Over $43,000 — the amount of money our Logistics Leaders for T1D Cure team raised in support of JDRF and its quest to turn Type 1 Diabetes into Type None.

And we continue to receive great feedback from supply chain and logistics professionals like you, such as this email from D.P., a Global Logistics Manager at a specialty chemicals company after he discovered the podcast version of our episodes:

Wow, this podcast is fantastic and it hits on everything I have been looking for. I looked a few months ago for something like this but didn’t find anything but thought I’d look again today and found your podcast. Really fantastic and I appreciate your efforts with this podcast.

On days when I wake up not knowing what to write about, or I’m suffering from a severe case of writer’s block, it’s comments like these that fill me with energy and purpose.

In case you missed them the first time around or want to watch/read them again, below are the most popular Talking Logistics video episodes and posts we aired/published this year. I encourage you to share this list with your colleagues, as well students, young professionals, and others who might be interested in joining our growing community.
