Welcome to “Supply Chain Unfiltered,” where we provide a candid look at the challenges that supply chain professionals face, and bring in forward thinkers and innovators to share their insights on the strategies, technologies, and collaborative efforts shaping the future of supply chain.
Hosted by Christine Barnhart, this month’s episode brings in special guest, Dr. Elouise Epstein, a distinguished thought leader in procurement and supply chain management at Kearney, to discuss the groundbreaking insights in her new book “How to Hack Your Supply Chain: Breaking Today, Building Tomorrow”.
In this episode, we will discuss the following:
- Death to the Monolithic ERP: Most global supply chains remain lumbering monoliths designed to maximize cost savings at the expense of agility, security, and ESG. How can supply chain leaders make the leap from enterprise to multi-enterprise thinking and build their supply chain networks to deliver what the consumer landscape demands today.
- Building Resilience Amid Uncertainty: Amidst the unpredictable landscape of global markets and supply chain disruptions, the importance of resilience cannot be over-emphasized. How can global supply chains develop strategies for building robust supply chains capable of weathering challenges and adapting to unforeseen circumstances.
- Driving Sustainability Initiatives: with supply chain management going from the understudy to the leading actor in recent years, there is no longer any room for businesses to not play a role in fostering environmental responsibility. Here, we discuss strategies for implementing eco-friendly measures and forging partnerships that prioritize sustainability throughout the supply chain ecosystem.
Tune in for unfiltered conversations that will empower you to navigate the ever-evolving landscape of FMCG supply chains.
