The supply chain and logistics industry is facing a period of unprecedented uncertainty. Business leaders must cope with an ever-shifting political and economic environment in which decision-making is more challenging than ever. As well as market volatility, they must also understand and leverage structural changes such as new technologies, the effects of climate change and the societal impact of their businesses.
For the next generation of executives, learning to survive within this complex world is only the first step – they must also identify and embrace the opportunities which it brings.
The new jointly developed Executive Programme from Ti Insight and Bayes Business School, ‘Supply chain risk in a dynamic geopolitical environment’, will equip you with the tools to make your business more resilient and propel your career by transforming uncertainty into opportunity.
Gain a deep understanding of supply chain risk:
Within the 2-3 day programme, you will learn about different types of risks and their origins; approaches to forecasting; the benefits and systemic problems caused by out-sourcing and off-shoring; the increase in political risk; environmental and ethical considerations and developing inventory and transportation solutions.
You will gain an understanding of the different sourcing strategies being employed by global manufacturers and retailers to mitigate risk, creating more resilient, robust and responsive supply chains. The programme leaders will share their experiences of how companies in different sectors deal with the evolving threats and the lessons which can be learnt.
The programme will allow you to identify challenges and develop your own intuitive solutions to help your business adapt and prosper in uncertain, non-linear times.
Share experiences with fellow supply chain leaders:
The programme will be collaborative and interactive, benefiting not only from the knowledge of the programme leaders but from the shared experience of the diverse participants, drawn from multiple sectors and geographies. Group assignments, presentations, reflections and feedback will provide an engaging and dynamic environment in which to super charge your understanding of the issues involved. The network of contacts you make with fellow professionals throughout the programme will be invaluable for the rest of your career.
World leading learning environment:
The programme will be delivered in Finsbury Square, located right next to the City of London, one of the world’s most dynamic financial and commercial centres. Bayes Business School is regarded as the intellectual hub of the City and provides world class facilities featuring stylish, state-of-the-art teaching rooms equipped with the latest technology. The programme will make use of syndicate rooms, breakout spaces and relaxed lounges to allow effective collaboration.
