Industrial distribution rarely makes headlines, yet it quietly powers nearly every corner of the modern economy. When factories run, hospitals operate, and infrastructure stands strong, it's because an intricate and largely invisible supply network is performing as intended. . Today, that network is under pressure from rising customer expectations, global volatility, and rapid advances in artificial intelligence. Even industries built on stability are being forced to rethink how they operate; the question is, can they adapt fast enough?  On this episode of The Reboot Chronicles, we sit down with Brian Walker, Chief Product Officer of WW Grainger. Founded in 1927 and headquartered in Lake Forest, Illinois, Grainger is a Fortune 500 company generating $18 billion in annual revenue, employing roughly 26,000 people, and delivering more than 30 million products daily to customers across nearly every U.S. ZIP code' now imagine the global reach. . Brian is leading one of the largest B2B digital transformations in the world, rebooting how industrial, commercial, and government buyers connect and transact at scale; as pressure to modernize accelerates with diminishing margins.  Let's explore how this 20year veteran is leveraging technology to prove that reinvention is not only possible, but profitable

AI can handle entry-level tasks today, but at what cost to your future leadership? Many companies are accidentally "hollowing out" their talent pipeline by cutting junior roles, creating a massive gap that will haunt them in five years. Efficiency today shouldn't come at the expense of your leaders tomorrow. How do we thoughtfully architect the future workforce to prioritize the health and depth of the leadership bench? In this episode, Melanie Tinto, CHRO of Grainger, joins us to explore how the company utilizes Strategic Workforce Planning (SWP) to ensure a "tech powered, human led" organization that balances automation with career development. This discipline informs every aspect of Grainger's talent strategy, from navigating the impact of AI to addressing talent shortages. We look into the necessity of viewing workforce planning as a mirror to financial planning, focusing on the strategic migration of roles and skills rather than simple headcount reduction. Key highlights include managing the surge of AI-generated job applications, the importance of foundational talent programs such as maintaining the campus recruiting "spigot," and transitioning toward a skills-based organization through internal upskilling and "build vs. buy" strategies. This episode is the CHROs' blueprint to become strategic visionaries who stay three moves ahead of market disruption. Discover how to master these critical "chess moves" before the talent gap becomes irreversible.   ---------- Start your day with the world's top leaders by joining thousands of others at Great Leadership on Substack.

Chris Grainger is the founder and podcast host of "The Lion Within Us," a platform for men to discuss faith, ambition, and living a life of purpose. He is known for creating content that helps men connect with their audience and serve others.The Lion Within Us was created out of a journey of loneliness and to explore why many of us have a gap between how we would like to perform and how we do perform on Sunday and how we perform on Wednesday afternoon. That exploration led to the creation of a community focused on strengthening our minds and bodies, developing stewardship of our careers and finances, while embracing the call we have to serve our homes as husbands and fathers – a community that grows everyday and has become a spiritual and intellectual home for many of us.

Key Takeaways: Tariffs, Typhoons, & Turmoil: Derisking the Supply Chain In "Tariffs, Typhoons, & Turmoil: Derisking the Supply Chain with Moody's Andrei Quinn-Barabanov ", Joe Lynch and Andrei Quinn-Barabanov, Moody's lead Supply Chain expert, discuss the need to leverage predictive data and holistic strategies to mitigate complex, interconnected global risks. Financial Resilience Vetting: Supply chain managers must vet the financial health of all partners, not just customers. Use financial services (like Moody's) to assess stability. A stressed supplier is a critical performance risk, especially for industries like automotive and pharma. Geopolitical Planning & Diversification: Geopolitical risk is now a core factor, tied to tariffs and compliance. Aerospace and defense require scenario planning for policy changes and conflicts. Diversify sourcing regions to mitigate sanctions and trade duties. Digital and Physical Security: Threats include both physical cargo theft/freight fraud and sophisticated cyber security breaches targeting operations (OT). An attack on a 3PL or tech supplier (common in high-tech) can halt the chain. Invest in protocols covering digital and physical movement. Ethical & Legal Due Diligence: Pressure is high to ensure clean supply chains. Avoiding companies involved in slavery and/or money laundering requires rigorous checks. Non-compliance is a massive reputational and legal risk for sectors like pharma and energy. Climate-Informed Logistics: Weather risk is rising; use climate science in network design. In regions prone to typhoons or earthquakes, pre-qualify alternative routes, hold strategic buffer stock, and invest in resilient infrastructure. Transparency is Compliance: Achieving transparency and traceability is vital for issues like corruption and ethical sourcing. Modern tools (AI) are essential to trace components. This guarantees provenance for high-tech and ensures regulatory adherence for energy firms. Proactive Risk Modeling: Move beyond reaction to proactive risk modeling. Synthesize data (financial, geopolitical, ethical) to create risk scores for partners. This allows sectors like defense to build resilience by dual-sourcing and stress-testing their networks.  Learn More About Tariffs, Typhoons, & Turmoil: Derisking the Supply Chain Andrei's LinkedIn Moody's Moody's Cyber Report Moody's Auto Report The Logistics of Logistics Podcast If you enjoy the podcast, please leave a positive review, subscribe, and share it with your friends and colleagues.

Talent development is particularly challenging for family offices, given their small size and limited career paths. Marcy and Stephanie talk about how family offices handle talent development, including coaching, goalsetting, and performance management, and highlight the key challenges and opportunities families and their internal teams face in this realm. Marcy and Stephanie share their insights on some of the external resources available to family offices that they can leverage to strengthen their HR capabilities, develop and coach their people, and build a vibrant culture. They also offer for family office owners and leaders on how best to promote staff engagement, provide advancement opportunities, coach their executives, and promote a culture of both loyalty and excellence.
