Today I am delighted to be joined by Bob Scott, Honorary Treasurer and Board Member of the Operational Research Society. Bob is a former Senior Vice President of Capgemini. This is the first of a short series of podcasts that explore Operational Research (OR) which is using scientific methods to make better business decisions.
