Then we got blindsided by 2020, and a host of logistics and supply chain disturbances threw everything off kilter at a blinding pace. We were left with our hands on our heads wondering: What just happened?And while we're all eager to turn the page on 2023, this month we do our best to put the year that was into perspective for LM readers so we can better prepare for what many are saying could be an equally uneven 2024.As Winston Churchill told the British House of Commons in a 1948 speech: "Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it." Well then, let's try get our arms around what just happened, because no one wants a repeat of 2023.And there's no one better to sum up the past year than long-time contributing editor Brooks Bentz. Over the past several decades, Bentz has had a front row seat on board tables across the freight transportation arena, early on as a senior railroad and trucking executive and then as a logistics and supply chain consultant to some of the most prominent organizations around the world. |
