Cecere will include in her discussion insights from her recently published book, Supply Chain Metrics That Matter, which is based on years of research into supply chain successes and failures and details the links between corporate financials and supply chain maturity.
Dave Kasabian , chief marketing officer of Tagetik, will direct the conversation. The 30-minute interview will touch on these and other questions:
"Nine out of 10 companies are stuck when it comes to growth," said Cecere. "One of the main reasons is ineffective inventory management. Market volatility, fluctuating demands and product prices, transportation times and costs are just a few of the factors that must be considered in inventory and financial forecasting. In the most advanced manufacturing companies, finance is 'overlayed' over operations in order to help identify and analyze trade offs and opportunities when designing and refining the optimal supply chain."
"Lora's take on the metrics that matter for growth and profitability is something every CFO can benefit from," said Kasabian. "Too often, companies set business goals and structure incentives that actually inhibit growth. Her research strongly demonstrates the value of detailed, cross-functional planning and forecasting and its correlation to market capitalization."
