Transform Talks: The Supply Chain Transformation Podcast

By: Future Insights Network
  • Summary

  • Just over 20 years ago I arrived in the UK with less than £1,000 to my name. I knew that the only way to succeed was to never settle for “good enough.” Through a mixture of hard work, humility and quite frankly dogged determination I managed to transform my life. Fast forward to the present day and I’m now the Co-Founder and CEO of The Future Insights Network, a fast-growing network of over 130,000 manufacturing, supply chain, and digital transformation leaders. Yes, my life is intense, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. On this podcast I will be sitting down with globally renowned thought leaders from the world of supply chain, manufacturing and business to bring you refreshingly down-to-earth conversations with the people responsible for transforming our everyday lives. If I have learnt anything from my 25 years working in senior leadership positions is that whilst change is almost inevitable, true transformation is very much a conscious choice. My question for you therefore is, are you ready to be transformed? I’m Maria Villablanca and this is Transform Talks.

  • #216 - Culture Code: Cracking the Code to Organizational Transformation with Tom Krause
    Nov 11 2024

    In this episode of Transform Talks featuring Tom Krause, author of the book "If Your Culture Could Talk" we discuss the importance of culture in organizational transformation, particularly within the supply chain domain.

    Key Points:

    • Culture is the Hidden Impediment: Many supply chain transformation efforts fail due to cultural issues. A nebulous definition of culture makes it difficult to address.
    • Culture as Infrastructure: Tom suggests viewing culture as infrastructure, like information flow and decision-making processes. This allows for measurement and improvement.
    • Quantifying Culture: While traditional surveys are often ineffective, there are ways to measure cultural variables through subgroups and regular feedback mechanisms.
    • Decision-Making and Cognitive Biases: Analysing decision-making processes helps identify cognitive biases leading to catastrophes.
    • Collective Intelligence and Leadership: Collaborative decision-making that fosters open communication and utilizes a diverse range of perspectives leads to better outcomes.
