Business relations
Supply chain teams have an essential role in business and are often required to be the facilitators between many functions to ensure successful flow of product, and information.
It is also not uncommon for supply chain functions to feel that they are the brunt of the pointing fingers regarding business issues leading to a challenging, non-collaborative working environment.
I have extensive experience in supporting teams to truly understand their core objectives within a cross functional working environment and how to focus on being the business partner that will allow companies to grow and flourish.
This often involves guiding teams to focus on customer needs, learn to communicate more openly, as well as supporting wider business functions to understand how their actions influence supply chain performance and how they can support greater effectiveness across complex matrix organisations.
“In my role, I worked closely with Dan as Supply Chain was a critical part of our customer and client value proposition. Dan is particularly strong in building relationships and delivering value to business leaders. He helped us in designing and building new distribution centres as well as ensuring smooth day to day operations of our supply chain system.”
