Supply Chain Gamification

Everyone says they learned vital life skills from the sports they played while growing up.

So why do we forget playful learning in the work place?

Some people believe that corporate learning should be a serious affair. They is no room for frivolity. You cannot learn anything from fun and games.  They might even say that playing games is for the kids. 

Others believe that their teams already know most everything they need to know to do their jobs. In their eyes there is not much to supply chains anyway. You count boxes, stack them on shelves, pick and pack, and send them away. If the transporter does not bring things on time you have a talk with their bosses. 

This is no place to talk about what is supply chain mastery, and why It takes only two years to obtain a master’s degree in supply chain but nearly 20 years of working under the tutelage of the acclaimed Masters to really become a Master. 

But one thing is acknowledged by all –

TRADITIONAL SUPPLY CHAIN LEARNING IS BORING AND ABSTRACT

  • When it comes to supply chain learning, the complex material, the abstract concepts and the
    complicated rendering makes traditional training almost totally ineffective.
  • Most CXOs and senior executives lament the supply chain talent shortage, and the know how
    gap.
  • This problem of talent shortage and know how deciency is important to solve, urgent in most
    companies, and difficult to solve rapidly.
  • If this was not the case, then it would not have been a major headache for CXOs and executives
    for the last 15 years.

And Yet, So Far There Has Been No Other Option But To Continue Using The Traditional Training Methods.

OUTPERFORM OUTSOURCE OUTPROFIT

The trend of outsourcing continues to grow unabated with the whole gamut of services, from simple to mission-critical tasks. There is not a single company on earth that does not outsource anything. It is not just about cost arbitrage, it is also a finer expression of division of labour at the organisational level. Like all leverage, outsourcing is a double-edged sword too. On one hand, it allows you to do more, faster. On the other hand, if it goes bad, it can easily kill your business. If you do not believe that is possible – you can google the Fox Meyer saga from the 90s and see for yourself.

GREEN SUPPLY CHAIN – AN ACTION MANIFESTO

It is generally accepted that environmental consciousness is now changing to environmental proactiveness as organizations are discovering that it makes good commercial sense.

Boards are asking the management to review their policies related to environmental norms, not only to bolster their corporate social responsibility aims, but also because consumers are asking for greener supply chains

It is also widely agreed that consumers will increasingly prefer to buy more and even pay more for products or services provided in an environmentally sound manner.
