Description

This has become an annual event to bring our UWEBC supply chain leaders together (on campus and virtually) to talk about talent.  It is a great session to network with some amazing people leaders!

Today's supply chain teams - and their leaders - need to continually upskill to remain responsive and resilient in an ever-changing environment:

  • A recent McKinsey report called out upskilling workers as one of three key priorities that will help companies operate more efficiently while accelerating growth.
  • The World Economic Forum’s 2023 Future of Jobs Report found that 60 percent of organizations around the world face skills gaps and struggle to attract talent.

We will hear from Amy Leschke-Kahle, Founder and Principal Advisor of Next Practice Advisors, who will talk about measuring and moving performance in the real world of work. We will also hear from UWEBC member company GE HealthCare, plus engage in insightful discussions with fellow UWEBC members.
