Peruse relevant industry reports and you will learn that supply chain management (SCM) is on an upward trajectory as a career field, according to Brian Gibson, professor of supply chain management at Auburn University:
"¢ SCM has become a strategic weapon as companies need the ability to buy, make, and move products anywhere, anytime. Today's chief supply chain officers oversee sourcing, manufacturing, and distribution, among other responsibilities, notes Kevin O'Marah.
This newfound respect is great news for supply chain professionals and advocates who have toiled in the shadows for decades. However, we must remember that the spotlight burns bright. Greater attention generates high expectations. Added responsibilities require stronger, broader skills. Higher salaries demand tangible return on that investment. And, success increases the potential for talent poaching.
