Mexico and the US: Critical Commercial Partners Amidst Global Tensions The relationship between Mexico and the U.S. as trade partners continues to be a pivotal discussion point, especially with Donald Trump re-emerging as a potential candidate in the 2024 U.S. elections. Recent talks highlight the mutual dependence both nations have on each other—Mexico’s growing role in supply chains, particularly in manufacturing, nearshoring, and energy, is more crucial than ever for the U.S. economy. As President Claudia Sheinbaum points out, Mexico is not only a key commercial partner but a strategic one in helping the U.S. stay competitive in a shifting global landscape. However, with political rhetoric and challenges around immigration and security continuing to surface, how will this relationship evolve? The next steps will determine how both nations can strengthen their ties while navigating complex political and economic dynamics. What are your thoughts on the future of US & Mexico trade relations? #Mexico #USTrade #SupplyChains #EconomicPartnership #Nearshoring #GlobalEconomy #USMexicoTrade

“…President-elect Claudia Sheinbaum appointed a close ally to lead the Energy Ministry that will be key to expand power generation for Mexico’s industrialization push. Luz Elena Gonzalez, Mexico City’s former finance chief under Sheinbaum, was part of a second group of cabinet members the president-elect announced on Thursday. They had worked closely together when Sheinbaum was the mayor of the nation’s capital until 2023. Sheinbaum also named current Economy Minister Raquel Buenrostro as federal comptroller and David Kershenobich as her Health Minister, among other appointments. Sheinbaum has said she wants to revitalize Petroleos Mexicanos, the troubled state oil company, with a new focus on clean energy by broadening its scope to include technologies such as green hydrogen, lithium extraction and electric-vehicle infrastructure. Her plan would cap Pemex’s oil production in coming years at around 1.8 million barrels a day while the government focuses on sparking growth in green energy. Sheinbaum also plans to spend almost $13.6 billion on projects to boost Mexico’s wind and solar generation while still adding gas-burning power plants. She also said she plans to modernize hydroelectric stations and add about 3,850 kilometers (2392 miles) of transmission lines. That plan represents a shift from the policies of President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, who prioritized spending billions to increase Pemex’s oil refining capacity.”

You are going to see a consistent theme from #ddmrp implementations that many people struggle with. Service levels increase and sales increase while inventories GO DOWN. How many decades have we been told that we had to make a choice? Stop compromising! #demanddriven #supplychainresilience https://lnkd.in/gpCwzFce

I've learned a lot from #Principles and #RayDalio, and I want to share that I've found that trust, diversity, learning, excellence, communication, and collaboration make a team stronger and enable us to continuously grow and deliver value to the organization. 1. Trust: Building trust among team members ensures that everyone feels confident in each other's abilities and intentions, fostering a safe and supportive work environment. 2. Diversity: Embracing diverse perspectives and backgrounds enriches the team's creativity and problem-solving capabilities. 3. Learning: Continuous learning and development help team members stay updated with new skills and knowledge, contributing to overall team growth. 4. Excellence: Striving for excellence motivates the team to achieve high standards and produce quality results. 5. Communication: Clear and effective communication ensures everyone is on the same page, reducing misunderstandings and promoting efficient workflows. 6. Collaboration: Working together harmoniously allows the team to leverage each member's strengths, resulting in better outcomes and a more cohesive unit.

At Eaton, we believe our commitment to ethics gives us a competitive advantage. From time to time, I sit down with leaders and discuss their commitment, our culture, and leadership. I recently had the pleasure of speaking with Rogerio Branco, Eaton's executive vice president and chief supply chain officer, about leading a large global team and what it means to work at a values-based company. Rogerio shared that because of ethics, he comes to work knowing how decisions will be made; it’s one reason why he’s been at Eaton for over 30 years! He also discussed Eaton's expectation that suppliers share our ethical values, his people-first philosophy, and the importance of building trust. As he beautifully put it, “When there’s trust in a team, and we have each other’s backs, magic happens.” Rogerio, you’re right! Thanks for your leadership and for the thought-provoking discussion.

Today I am happy to share Schneider Electric's partnership with the WageIndicator Foundation to advance living wages across the globe. We believe this is a crucial step in our commitment to sustainability – ensuring that all our employees and our suppliers are paid a living wage is central to responsible business practices. Just as we care about the environmental impact of our supply chain, we care about the human element too. This partnership is a powerful example of how businesses can – and should – play a direct role in improving sustainability and human rights outcomes.
