5 Key Traits for CSCO Effectiveness

A stark disconnect in perceptions of the chief supply chain officers (CSCOs) exists within the C-suite. CSCOs consider themselves effective leaders, while C-suite peers and CEOs are less convinced. CSCOs need their CEOs and peers to view them as effective business leaders. By analyzing CSCO actions and traits against CxO perceptions of effectiveness and ultimately business outcomes, Gartner found that CSCO effectiveness depends on five key traits. To succeed, CSCOs must align their actions with C-suite expectations, focus on strategic priorities and challenge outdated perceptions of the supply chain. By fostering collaboration, embracing digital solutions and driving innovation, CSCOs can transform the supply chain into a strategic growth driver, strengthening the organization’s competitive edge and resilience.
