198: Mitigating the Impact of Trade Wars&Tariffs w/ Bill Michels - a podcast by Philip Ideson

What can we do to protect ourselves against tariffs, and what options do we have when tariffs are levied on the products or materials that I buy?

These are two questions that I have received regularly from listeners over the past couple of months, against the backdrop both of increasing trade tensions, and the ongoing uncertainty around Brexit.

And so to help answer those questions, I reached out to Bill Michels.

Bill is a recognized expert in Purchasing and Supply Chain Management and has worked in procurement across a wide spectrum of industries and countries transforming Procurement and the Supply Chain.

Until recently, Bill was the CEO and founder of Aripart Consulting after more than 23 years at ADR North America. Under his leadership, ADR North America became a leading niche specialty consulting firm and has won several recognitions and awards. Bill recently joined CIPS as Vice President of Operations - Americas, and so I also took the opportunity to ask Bill to share some of CIPS' plans for the US market.
