Supply Chain
When disruption is constant, an organisation’s preparation for key supply chain trends can be a significant competitive advantage.
KPMG’s insights to supply chain trends show that disruptions to supply chain operations are set to stay in 2024, whether they be existing or new geopolitical conflicts, inflationary pressures and the recessionary environment, climate change weather events, or other issues yet to emerge. They can all impact access to goods and how they flow to their final destination, create port holdups, reduce container and ocean freight availability, and surge prices, among other concerns.
The supply chain trends shaking up 2024
Successful supply chains rely on strong leaders who can spur top performance from those around them. Leaders contribute their own talents, interests, styles, and goals to help their companies reach their full potential.
Today’s leaders know they cannot be mere managers; they must widen the scope to develop a vision for the future while managing and motivating a team to meet day-to-day and unforeseen challenges of business operations.
We’ve identified desired experiences from analysts’ and associations’ perspectives and have included them from an employee, leadership, and management point of view.
New Experiences for Supply Chain Managers
According to KPMG changes in workforce skill sets, or the transformation of operating models, leaders can be certain: the ways of the past will not position you as a leader in the future. Future-ready supply chains are customer-centric, can operate in the digital world with agility, and do so profitably to be a revenue driver for the business.
