Partager

Sustainability is increasingly vital for companies, addressing regulations, customer expectations, cost, and efficiency. Industry 4.0 introduces powerful tools like Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), Blockchain, and Big Data Analytics, which enable real-time data sharing, automation, and greater traceability across supply chains.

However, successful implementation requires strategic integration: companies must set clear objectives, map processes, and align with partners to form a unified digital network.

This approach fosters transparency and real-time collaboration, which can reduce waste and optimize resource use, ultimately driving sustainable growth and improving customer satisfaction.

Drawing from women's testimonials in The Guardian and from contributions of feminist writers, Virginia Woolf, Julia Kristeva, and Margaret Mead, we start a conversation on the positive and energizing aspects of menopause in the workplace. We propose a social interpretation of menopause that challenges a pervasive perspective of medical decline: A theorization of “the dialectic of zest,” as inspired by the writings of Margaret Mead. By problematizing the experiences of women going through this transition in the workplace, we reveal how well-intentioned awareness campaigns can lead to further stigmatization. We thus encourage organizations to not only favor an approach of “education for all” but also extend their social imaginaries beyond medicalized perspectives and coping views.

Traditional supply chains are linear and slow, lacking real-time data sharing. Supply Chain 4.0, powered by Industry 4.0 technologies like AI, IoT, Blockchain, Big Data, and Autonomous robots, transforms these networks by integrating real-time communication among people, machines, and processes. This boosts efficiency through automation and advanced analytics, enabling accurate demand forecasting, cost reduction, and waste minimization. It also provides real-time visibility, allowing companies to track shipments and materials instantly.

Risk in investing refers to the chance that actual returns may differ from expected ones, possibly leading to a loss of capital. High-risk investments often offer higher potential returns but are more volatile. Diversification is a key method for managing risk by spreading investments across different asset classes.

An investment is the allocation of resources, typically money, with the goal of generating returns or profit. Investments can take many forms, such as stocks, bonds, or real estate. While they inherently carry risk, smart strategies and diversification can help mitigate potential losses and increase gains.

The increasing impacts of climate change and extreme weather events have amplified the importance of supply chain resilience. This study focuses on creating a framework to strengthen supply chain endurance and contribute to ongoing discussions around resilience. A mixed-method approach is adopted, starting with qualitative research to identify key components of endurance, followed by an empirical analysis of its connection to supply chain and community resilience. The results underline the role of adaptive leadership, transparency, flexibility, collaboration, redundancy, and preparedness in enhancing endurance. This research highlights the critical need to develop these capabilities to support sustainable resilience for businesses and broader communities.

Online shopping satisfaction hinges on two major factors: “fairness and security.” Customers want fair pricing, transparent processes, and respectful treatment—what researchers call distributive, procedural, and interactional “justice.”
