UMass INFORMS Speaker Series: Mr. Jack Levis

This semester’s last Speaker Series event was a very informative and interesting presentation by Mr. Jack Levis, who is an INFORMS fellow, an independent advisor, and Retired Senior Director of Engineering at UPS. Mr. Levis talked about the importance of understanding the limitations of analytics, investing in data alongside the product, and embracing change management.

In his presentation, Mr. Levis also mentioned the value of building a strong network, which was a remarkable reminder for our audience consisting of students and researchers at different stages in their careers.

Many thanks to our brilliant guest Mr. Levis, and everyone who joined us for this amazing talk. If you missed it, you can follow the link to our YouTube channel, and watch the recording of this brilliant session!
