About the Event
Topic: Crafting Future-Proof Supply Chain Projects: The Power of Lessons Learned through Risk Management
In today’s VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, and Ambiguous) environment, supply chains face constant challenges in managing resources, engaging stakeholders, and streamlining procedures. This session provides a strategic roadmap for establishing a robust Lessons Learned (LL) process by leveraging tools from Risk Management. Participants will explore the “5 Ws” (Who, When, Where, What, and Why) and the “How” of embedding these lessons into corporate culture to drive efficiency through the ‘Build Back Better’ principle.
Learning Objectives:
- Establish a meaningful process for eliciting observations after both achievements and setbacks.
- Analyze observations to derive actionable Lessons Identified.
- Identify essential stakeholders for planning prospective Lessons Learned initiatives.
- Validate and articulate finalized Lessons Learned for long-term organizational impact.
- Explore real-world case studies of supply chain triumphs and failures.
