“Business has incredible potential outside of building great jobs and creating economic stability for people. It has this ability to really transform our lives and be an incredible engine for good.”

– Megan McCamey, Founding Director of goBeyondProfit

 

Nearly every episode of Supply Chain Now ends with Scott Luton sharing the same sign off, “Do good. Give forward. Be the change that’s needed.” Few guests have lived out that idea better than Megan McCamey, Founding Director of goBeyondProfit, a network of more than 900+ Georgia CEOs. This is the latest in a string of philanthropic and community impact-driven efforts to which Megan has dedicated her time and talent.

Companies of all shapes and sizes have the ability to contribute to their local communities. By helping them learn from each other and build collective momentum, Megan has helped many executives get started on their own ‘do good’ journeys.

In this episode, Megan speaks with Kristi Porter, Enrique Alvarez, and Scott Luton about:

· When executive teams work with authenticity and generosity, they can achieve business value and community impact at the same time.

· The annual benchmarking activity that goBeyondProfit runs and what it has revealed about corporate generosity in the Atlanta area

· How important it is to have a formal communications strategy around community impact initiatives, both inside and outside of the company

Analysis of the U.S. Bank Freight Payment Index – Q3 2025

In this episode of Supply Chain Now, hosts Scott Luton and Kim Reuter welcome Bobby Holland, Vice President/Director of Freight Business Analytics at U.S. Bank, and Heather Shilt, Director, Global Logistics at Fortive, to unpack Q3 2025 findings from the U.S. Bank Freight Payment Index, one of the industry’s most referenced trucking indicators, informed by tens of billions in transactions. The panel explores why volumes are down even as costs rise, how tariffs and manufacturing softness are reshaping regional performance, and where rate pressure and capacity tightness are showing up first. Together, they dig into nine key takeaways from the national and regional views (West, Southwest, Midwest, Northeast, Southeast): most significant sequential gains in the West in four years, persistent softness in the Southwest, and mixed signals elsewhere as consumer demand, housing starts, and labor dynamics tug the market in different directions. From shipper playbooks (carrier-mix depth, lane-level cost vigilance, and alternate modes) to practical watch-outs for Q4 and early 2026, this data-driven conversation equips operators to trend, plan, and pressure-test their assumptions in a volatile environment. This episode is hosted by Scott Luton and Kim Reuter, and produced by Trisha Cordes, Joshua Miranda, and Amanda Luton.   Additional Links…
