But behind the scenes, it drives everything from sustainability progress to whether products even make it to your door. In this episode of Supply Chain Now and ongoing Now Generation series, Scott W. Luton is joined by Professor Catarina Carvalho , faculty member at Columbia University and Associate Principal at Arup , alongside Briana Stregiel from Columbia Business School , Curran Murphy , Distribution Planning Manager at Louis Vuitton, and Ingrid Eck , Graduate Student, M.S. in Sustainability Management at Columbia University . Together, they share how the next wave of supply chain leaders is already tackling complex challenges across sustainability, data, and global operations. The conversation highlights how diverse backgrounds, from luxury fashion and food systems to natural gas trading, help students bridge classroom learning to real global challenges. Topics such as decarbonization, scope 3 emissions, climate risk, and cross-functional collaboration take center stage as each guest shares what drives them most. Their perspectives reveal a generation that is not only career-focused but deeply motivated to create meaningful change. Catarina also shares insights into how Columbia's program intentionally develops well-rounded leaders by bridging academic rigor with hands-on, real-world practitioner expertise.
