Listen "How Plugable is Dealing with Tariff Turbulence"
Episode Synopsis
Tariffs are top of mind across the channel. In this episode of Changing Channels, Larry Walsh talks with Lynn Smurthwaite-Murphy, CEO of Pluggable Technologies, about the wide-reaching effects of shifting U.S. trade policy. Lynn shares how Pluggable restructured its supply chain in response to Trump-era tariffs and how new rounds of uncertainty are forcing fast, complex decisions. The discussion covers pricing volatility, the limits of reshoring, and how to stay competitive in a crowded peripherals market. With decades of channel experience, Lynn provides practical insight on managing through disruption and maintaining strategic focus when the rules keep changing.
