From Skill Gaps to Talent Excellence in Supply Chain
As we know, supply chain leaders face challenges on a daily basis. So, what can we learn about keeping our teams learning and fine-tuning their skills for future success?
In this episode, Scott W. Luton is joined by Sam Pemberton, CEO of Skill Dynamics, and Kevin Takier, Manager of Portfolio Strategy and Analytics at Delta Airlines, to discuss the critical issue of the supply chain skills gap. With a rising need for targeted upskilling and leadership development, the conversation explores how organizations like Delta Airlines are investing in their workforce to meet future demands.
The discussion also delves into Skill Dynamics’ data-driven approach to training, including insights from their latest skills report and the specific competencies needed for supply chain success in 2024. Both Kevin and Sam share real-world examples of how personalized learning plans, AI adoption, and continuous development are reshaping teams across industries.
