Thought Leadership

Inside Higher Ed
“As we move from lower-income to higher-income areas, we don’t see a proportionate increase in lottery sales. Lower-income areas purchase a disproportionate amount of lottery tickets.”

Celeste Carruthers - William F. Fox Distinguished Professor of Labor Economics

Dallas Business Journal
"A decade ago, most supply chain leaders were focused on functional operational issues within their own areas of the supply chain such as procurement, logistics, or manufacturing operations. The C-suite was several managerial levels removed, making direct communication rare. Cost-cutting was often seen as the major value that supply chain could provide to the business."

Shay Scott - Professor of Practice; Vice Dean & Chief Operating Officer, Digital Learning

NBC News
“When there is demand, it comes in huge surges, but, of course, production doesn’t work that way. Production requires long, steady runs with plenty of setup time to get quality where it needs to be. Running big production batches leaves the manufacturers with product facing limited shelf life, ranging from 6 to 12 months, depending on the test type.”

“There’s empire building within organizations. People will say, ‘I have autonomy. I don’t want metrics on my list of key performance indicators that I don’t have direct control over.”

Ted Stank - Harry J. & Vivienne R. Bruce Chair of Excellence

CBS News
“The pandemic has honed the skills in collaboration. Some states and local governments have worked that more adeptly. Others are still working it out.”

Mary Long - Lecturer

Wall Street Journal
“If you go over budget, people will be mad at you, but you’ll still have a job come Monday. And so the tendency is to make sure that we don’t stock out.”

Your gifts are transformational.

"I graduated from a small high school in rural West Tennessee. I was my class valedictorian and was involved in various organizations. Although other graduates at my school decided to attend small local colleges, I was convinced that attending a larger university would give me the opportunities and resources I needed to pursue a career. It is for this reason that I chose to attend the Haslam College of Business at UT. If it were not for donors like you, I would not be able to attend UT. Being a Volunteer these last two years has been the time of my life, and it has made me a more prepared and well-rounded individual.”
