Unraveling the Impact of the UAW Strike on the Automotive Industry: Economic Implications

Tune in as we unravel the complex tapestry of the automotive industry with Robert Hanfield, the Bank of America University Distinguished Professor of Supply Chain Management at North Carolina State University. You'll learn about the economic implications of the UAW strike and how it impacts not only the automotive giants but also the smaller Tier 2 and 3 suppliers. A single part can bring an entire assembly to a halt, and we’ll discuss the potential timeline and resolution of this strike, particularly regarding Ford.

The ripple effects of this strike extend far beyond the manufacturing plants, affecting dealerships, logistics, and warehouse distribution throughout the automotive industry. We'll also touch on the effects of this strike on UAW workers and the potential repercussions if the big three move production to Mexico. 

Simultaneously, we spin an entertaining yarn about the unique intersection of cars and personalities, discussing how legendary figures such as Jimi Hendrix have left their mark on the industry. 

So buckle up, and prepare for an insightful journey into the world of automobiles.
