Supply Chain: A Chief Executive Opportunity
Speakers: Lynn Britton, CEO, Sisters of Mercy Health System, Chesterfield, MO, and Vance Moore, president, Resource Optimization & Innovation, a division of the Sisters of Mercy Health System, Chesterfield, MO
Moderator: Rick Barlow, senior editor, Healthcare Purchasing News/president, Wingfoot Media Inc., Schaumburg, IL
Overview: Contrary to popular belief, supply chain management is escaping relative obscurity in the basement and expanding beyond the peripheral boundaries of C-suite awareness. Motivated by budgetary and economic concerns, a growing number of healthcare organization CEOs are more concerned than ever before about supply chain management’s performance, which not only impacts the bottom line but also top line revenues. Outside of healthcare, such strategies and tactics are common business practices as supply chain management typically possesses C-suite influence and even peer status.
In this Webinar, which springs from Healthcare Purchasing News’ annual “Supply Chain-Focused CEOs” award, the presenters will explore and emphasize why forward-thinking CEOs truly care about the supply chain – how it touches everybody every day and how it confidently must work in collaboration with other departments and providers to achieve best practices. The presenters also will highlight what it will take for supply chain management to succeed where it’s needed, including acceptable and accurate performance measures and a recognition that supply chain will represent an even more significant portion of financial operations in the future, as well as how supply chain management hoists a ladder to the C-suite.
