Build Logistics Resilience: From Reactive Response to Proactive Planning

In today’s volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous (VUCA) business environment, disruptive events lead to increasing supply chain costs, reduced order profitability and affected customers. A resilient logistics function is critical in enabling businesses to withstand and recover from disruptions. However, most logistics leaders are conditioned, even incentivized, to be good crisis managers, to react rather than proactively plan. The end result is costly firefighting and service delays. Supply chain logistics leaders have to contend with multiple competing priorities, resource constraints and limited options when it comes to disruption readiness. Gartner research shows that those who proactively plan and build functional resilience are nearly 3.5 times more likely to be high performers. Join this complimentary Gartner webinar as a Gartner expert provides insights and recommendations to heads of supply chain logistics who struggle to build a resilience strategy. We’ll discuss what high performers do and why their plans work, as well as explore case studies that demonstrate successful tactics. You will walk away from this session with answers to your vital questions and recommended actions to help you address your mission-critical priorities.
