Scott Caldwell, president and CEO of The Resource Group, gives great insight to the Supply Chain Leader of the future!

The way Hospitals and IDNs buy has changed drastically in the last few years and one major reason is the people they have in place has greatly improved.

Scott Caldwell gives a great inside view to how The Resource Group, a subsidiary of Ascension, values, prioritizes and deploys supply chain talent.

I think this is a very important article for suppliers to read. It shows you the future is here today and the skills you need to be successful today and tomorrow are markedly different than yesteryear.

Caldwell explores three topics that I think you should pay attention to;

When hiring they ensure the candidate’s personal values align with the organization. Having great skills is no longer enough!
Millennials are 48% of The Resource Group’s workforce! Suppliers take heed, do you know what Millennials value? How they want to communicate with you? You better learn!
Elevating the profile and stature of Supply Chain Leaders is a major initiative. If you think Supply Chain Leaders have the ear of the C-suite today, it will be even more so tomorrow.

This is a must-read for any National Accounts Executive that really wants to understand Supply Chain talent of tomorrow. In many cases, they are here today!
