My work within both the academic and consulting environments focuses on transportation and global supply chain management, and I am particularly interested in the relationships between the buyers and sellers of transportation services. With a passionate interest in how to make Canadian supply chains better, and keen enthusiasm for the world of shipping and ports, I founded the Port Performance Research Network in 2001 to examine how to make ports more effective in adding value to their users’ supply chains through governance reform and benchmarking. Since 2003, I also have had an active research program in the area of short sea (or coastal) shipping, as I believe that we need to move as much cargo by sea as possible in order to do our part to mitigate climate change impacts from goods movement.
