After a twenty-six plus year career at Bosch (half as an executive), Matt Ball retired and joined the faculty at Anderson University’s College of Business. He teaches courses in Supply Chain Management. He literally stepped out of the Global Supply Chain and into the Supply Chain Classroom. His passion is to bring the real world “nuts and bolts” of Supply Chain management and merge it with the theory of SCM. His students quickly come to the realization that “Business problems are messy!” and “Logic, data and reason” help clean-up the mess!
