Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Dominic Regan talks Suppply Chain: Logistics, Solutions, and Passion
Q: What's the key to solving customer problems in logistics?
He argues for listening deeply to understand root causes, avoiding the silver bullet mindset, and recognizing that technology alone isn't always the answer; processes, data visibility, and cross-functional collaboration are essential.
Dominic Regan talks Suppply Chain: Logistics, Solutions, and Passion
Q: How did the Oracle acquisition of Glog influence the business and product strategy?
Dominic recounts the Miami user conference during the acquisition, the perception challenge from customers about Oracle being a database company, and how the combination of people, IP, and a broad software stack enabled a seamless integration and a vision for a cloud-focused logistics portfolio.
Dominic Regan talks Suppply Chain: Logistics, Solutions, and Passion
Q: Tell us how you fell into logistics and whether it was as you expected.
Dominic explains a family connection to farming and transport that drew him into logistics from an early stage, followed by university studies in transportation and a long, ongoing career in road haulage, warehousing, and software implementation, which shaped his enduring passion for the field.
Jim McCullen talks Supply Chain: Loyalty, Efficiency, and Solutions
Q: How do you see AI changing your day-to-day operations and the role of humans in Century's teams?
AI improves routing, consolidation planning, and data access via intelligent agents; humans shift to higher-value orchestration and decision-making, empowered by AI as a 'superpower' while automation handles repetitive tasks and data cleansing, with a focus on upskilling and change management.
Jim McCullen talks Supply Chain: Loyalty, Efficiency, and Solutions
Q: What are the three biggest hype moments in logistics that you would put on a wall of shame, and might come back later?
Blockchain hype failed to materialize as a universal game changer, digitization efforts for digital freight forwarders fell short due to underlying reliance on people and processes, and data sharing standards have improved but remain inconsistent—AI is now bridging the gap by enabling more practical, data-driven decisions and real-time routing with human oversight.
