HUMAN RESOURCES
Within the context of the globalisation of markets and of competition, human resources are an ever more decisive factor of competitive advantage for both companies and non-profit organisations.
With the progressive levelling of the fields of technological and process know-how, the individual is indeed the one true discriminating factor.
Ultimately, the individual’s competencies, motivations, innovation capabilities and overall professional performance quality determine an organisation’s success.
From such a perspective, companies and institutions must equip themselves with experts capable of both fully understanding the central role of the individual and of overseeing the related managerial processes, such as:
selection, hiring, training, communication, development and compensation.

Creating Optimal Supply Chain Structure and Process
As global competition and advancing technology render borders irrelevant and link companies more closely, supply chains — the network of suppliers, plants, distributors, retailers and others that participate in the sale, delivery and production of goods and services — are growing increasingly complex. No longer simply the domain of the warehouse manager or logistics director, supply chain management is viewed by most companies as a mission-critical element.
An organization’s supply chain is a critical business process, not just a business function. Today’s supply chain can bring significant value to your organization, provided it has the support of the board.
Supply chain development is now driven by customers, with shorter lead times and increasing customer expectations. Supply chain optimization is crucial for a successful customer experience.
Improving efficiency and optimizing performance are the top areas of focus for supply chain executives.
10 Best Practices for Optimizing Supply Chain Management
1. Set up your supply chain council.
2. Establish an appropriate and thoughtfully staffed supply chain structure.
3. Identify areas where technology can help improve and streamline processes.
4. Maintain healthy supplier relationships.
5. In procurement, look at total cost of ownership over price.
6. Source suppliers strategically and with collaboration.
7. Move contract management responsibility to the supply chain.
8. Optimize inventory for reduced cost.
9. Establish regular reviews to ensure efficiency and mitigate risk.
10. Be socially responsible and establish “green” initiatives.
