In this episode of The Momentum Flow, I sit down with Jorge Titinger, a global CEO, board director, and former semiconductor operator who has led organizations through growth cycles, downturns, and complex transformations.

Jorge shares why culture is an operating system at its roots. Drawing from elite sports, global supply chains, and the boardroom, he explains how trust, clear decision rights, and aligned teams create speed, resilience, and real competitive advantage. From navigating volatility and boom-bust cycles to embedding AI as augmented intelligence, this conversation is a masterclass in leading under pressure without losing momentum.

If you’re building high-performance teams, scaling operations, or leading through uncertainty, this episode will challenge how you think about execution, culture, and leadership.

In this episode of The Momentum Flow, I sit down with Gustavo López Ghory, former Chief Supply Chain Officer at Kimberly-Clark, longtime global manufacturing leader at Procter & Gamble, and co-founder & Chairman of Swiss tech startup SmarterChains.

With more than ~35 years leading some of the world’s most complex production networks, Gustavo has seen every wave of “transformation” in manufacturing, and he’s honest about what actually creates value versus what’s just buzz.

We dive into:
- The four pillars of Gustavo’s leadership philosophy: people, technical mastery, business mastery, and authenticity.

- Where digital twins, robotics, and AI are truly delivering ROI, and where companies are stuck in pilot paralysis.

- Why most factories are quietly carrying ~30% hidden waste, and how operational value intelligence exposes it.

- How SmarterChains is helping manufacturers unlock trapped value and move toward the “Factory of the Future.”

- The evolving role of the human operator in an AI-augmented world.

- Practical advice for operators, founders, and investors in smart manufacturing.

If you’re building, running, or investing in industrial operations, this conversation will challenge how you think about technology, culture, and value creation on the shop floor.
