In this digital age, we all begin to use the technologies made possible by Industry 4.0. We are using artificial intelligence, machine learning, and smart contracts. And yet, supply chains are still run by people. These people use human intelligence, human learning, and human-driven contracts. The humans that operate global supply chains are younger and older, dynamic and static, lighter and darker, and a range of years in the workplace. This session explores connections among supply chain professionals who think, act, and challenge a little differently than those around them – and the financial and performance benefits that a diverse workforce brings to an organization. Join Sheri Hinish, the Supply Chain Queen, and Deborah Dull, GE Digital, as they explore the human experience in digital transformation and industry 4.0.
