Presentation topic
Today’s customers are
expecting you, as their supplier, to provide them with products and services
faster, cheaper and with better quality than your competitors. The stakes are
high if you want to stay in business. Since managing an integrated supply chain
is recognized by most experts as the key to an organization’s success in the
2000’s, it is no surprise that companies are looking for (and rewarding)
employees who can provide leadership in making those critical supply chains
function efficiently. Effective employees understand that no person in the
supply chain can succeed unless all succeed. Corporate and personal success
comes from crafting positive working relationships and win-win agreements with
those in your supply chain who you rely on as well as those who rely on you.
Interestingly enough, all the lessons we learn from observing employees who are
successful in managing their supply chain are mirrored in observing Dorothy’s
experience in Oz.
This interactive
workshop will provide participants an opportunity to explore their role in the
supply chain as they gain knowledge, confidence and a new understanding of their
role as the leader who can make positive changes happen. We will explore the
skills, attitudes and actions of leadership as presented to us in Oz and we
highlight the lessons learned along the “yellow brick road”.
Because supply chain
leadership involves all functions within organizations, this 8-hour workshop
will prove helpful to persons at every level and every job description. All in
the organization are important to the success of the business and all will
benefit from improving their knowledge and skills as leaders.
This fast-paced, interactive workshop will help you

fresh, personal way

technology, what we’ve lost and what we need to hang on to
