Exploring Supply Chain Resilience in COVID and beyond, Sustainability, Building Teams for Digital, Diversity and Inclusion in Teams, Reducing CO2 Emissions, and Working in the Secondary Plastics Market (Henkel)

In Episode 17, we explore many relevant and progressive topics in
supply chain, manufacturing and building a world-class
sustainability organization. Dr. Dirk Holbach, the CSCO and SVP
of Henkel Home and Laundry Care, shares his PoV on navigating
supply chain disruptions in dynamic, global markets using team
diversity and a strategic force for resilience. We discuss the
ever-changing requirements for supply chain talent and how to
build supply chain leaders. He dives deep into talent management
strategy, building internal competencies in digital
transformation, and the importance of purpose, diversity, broad
exposure, and responsibility to encourage employee engagement and
retention.


You’ll find an intriguing discussion on the “gate of
responsibility” in life cycle impact analysis and how to
build “pragmatic sustainability” in your organization
where “we do what we say we can do", no greenwashing, no
hype. Dr. Dirk explores Henkel’s journey working in the
secondary plastics market, an adoption of circular economy.
Lastly, he explores transitioning from technician to strategic
leader offering career path insights for supply chain
professionals.
