IIM A Professor's Advice On Courses To Take To Ace A Career In Operations

In a country like ours, trucks are a major source of transportation of goods to different parts of the country maintaining the supply chain. And it is important to look into the importance of the same in the present day and age. In this video, Prof. Roy talks about the present trucking system, how to improve it, supply chain and its dependence on multiple factors, and most importantly, about the future of operations and courses you need to focus on.
