According to this article from February 18, 2008 on Supply Chain Management Review’s website, AMR Research and The Global Supply Chain Professional Development Commitee have developed this online survey “designed to identify what sorts of supply chain-related skills are most useful to employers right now.”
This survey is also being used to determine what supply chain skills should be focused on in supply chain educational programs, in response to a lack of highly-skilled supply chain managers in the field.
Some of the questions the survey will ask include:
-
What is the current span of control that supply chain leaders are responsible for managing? Is it growing or contracting?
-
What targeted supply chain competency areas are current or future priorities, gaps or concerns?
-
Are there specific functional predispositions that organizations are trying to acquire talent to support?
What questions do you think the survey should ask? Do you plan on taking the survey?
