Join this essential 40-minute "Global Supply Chain Strategies" panel, sponsored by Jabil (a supply chain and manufacturing solutions provider). The discussion begins with an opening statement from Frank McKay, Chief Supply Chain and Procurement Officer at Jabil, who asks the core question: What is the single most important quality an effective global supply chain strategy needs today? He is joined by expert panelists: Dean Bain, PSVP & General Manager, Supply Chain at Coupa; Rasheed Mohamad, Executive Vice President - Global Operations & Business Technology at Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise; and John Ham, Global Supply Chain Transformation Leader at JTI (Japan Tobacco International). The panelists tackle the complex balancing act between resilience, efficiency, and sustainability, and discuss how to build a working strategy across multiple countries, partners, and systems. The discussion focuses on responding to current disruption, including lessons learned from high-profile events like US tariffs and cyber-attacks. The experts delve into the rapidly evolving role of procurement and supply chain technology, addressing how to move beyond mere tool deployment to ensure measurable improvements and tackle the challenge of achieving deep data visibility. They debate whether leaders should favour cloud migration or continue to bolt onto existing on-premise infrastructure. Finally, the session explores how supply chain strategy is increasingly influencing the overarching strategy of organisations, and the panellists offer their single most important piece of advice to leaders rethinking their strategy in today's challenging global climate.
