ENGAGING DISCUSSION

Globally-competitive firms are placing increased importance upon sustainability – what it means to the organization, how can it be driven into the supply base, and what innovative approaches are the most successful.  Whether human, economic, social, or environmental, all supply management leaders should sharpen their focus on sustainability for a positive impact on their company. Join us as we discuss innovative approaches to implementing sustainability efforts throughout your supplier base:

  1. Corporate Social Responsibility – Establishing best practices and expanding your CSR into your supply base.
  2. Supplier Risk – How have you integrated sustainability into your supplier risk program?
  3. Waste reduction – How can you encourage suppliers to maximize use of existing resources. Where is there space in the supply chain to increase efficiency?
  4. Engagement – Motivating your team to identify opportunities for supply chain sustainability, assist suppliers in adopting best practices, and embracing a sense of ownership over sustainability efforts.
