Wan Ri Ho successfully defended her doctoral thesis!
How can companies come together to effectively respond in a world increasingly disrupted by unexpected supply chain crises?
In her doctoral research, Wan Ri investigated inter-organizational collaboration as a strategic response to supply chain crises. Her work specifically explores how companies can effectively collaborate across organizational boundaries to mitigate and respond to disruptions within supply chains.
Based on extensive empirical research conducted through close collaboration with industry leaders from diverse sectors, she developed a three-layer analytical framework to examine critical factors influencing successful inter-organizational collaboration: (1) Firm, (2) Network, and (3) Ecosystem. The study highlights how these collaborative efforts can significantly enhance resilience and adaptability in the face of supply chain disruptions.
The insights gained from Wan Ri's research offer important implications for both theory and practice, significantly contributing to the literature on supply chain management, crisis response, and organizational collaboration. Her findings provide practical guidance for companies seeking robust, collaborative approaches to effectively manage supply chain crises.
We congratulate Wan Ri on this achievement and wish her the best of luck for her future!
