Synthèse

At its core, supply chain risk management (SCRM) research has focused on identifying and assessing known and unknown risks, and on risk mitigation to derive and implement solutions that ensure supply will continue to meet demand during and after a disruptive event. However, supply chain disruptions have been escalating in recent years and revealed considerable complex vulnerabilities in how firms manage their global operations. Current SCRM strategies, theories, and frameworks are ill-equipped to address these vulnerabilities, despite years of experience and research.

• To what extent does strategic manipulation of information (withholding, distorting, or framing risk signals) affect collective supply chain resilience outcomes?
• How can behavioral theories explain inter-firm risk-sharing under uncertainty?
• How can interdisciplinary (i.e. psychology, sociology) perspectives be used to explain multi-level intention action reaction dynamics in risk situations spanning individuals, organizations and supply chains?
• How do individual decision-making styles aggregate into organizational risk cultures and capabilities?
• How do behavioral dynamics across levels (micro, macro, interorganizational) complement or contradict one another in shaping supply chain resilience?
• What mechanisms explain how individual-level behaviors (e.g., bounded rationality, trust, or opportunism) cascade into network-level collaboration or conflict in supply chain risk management?
• What are the unintended consequences when human intuition and AI recommendations diverge in supply chain risk management decisions?
• To what extent do fear appeals, regulatory pressures, or organizational risk cultures motivate or inhibit proactive cyber risk management?
