There have been four global recessions since 1948, but the looming recession will be unlike any other given the challenges of the last three years of surging demand, supply constriction and record inflation levels. This session will help CSCOs successfully navigate recessionary conditions, stabilize their supply chains and secure talent so they are in an even stronger position in the future.

CSCOs face critical challenges beyond the ability of just one organization. Forty-four percent of supply chain leaders recognize ecosystem partnerships as key to addressing critical concerns, but most CSCOs report a high degree of difficulty in execution. This session explores the barriers to ecosystem success and the approaches that leading supply chain leaders take to overcome challenges, and share lessons on areas where industry ecosystem partnerships are working.

Organizations are making bold commitments to achieve net-zero GHG emissions. CSCOs are in the spotlight for emission reductions in the value chain, but don’t have a plan to reach these goals. This interactive session will use Gartner tools and templates to develop a strategic roadmap to net zero.
