Elisa Gustavo on Living and Breathing Excellence in Supply Chain and Empowering More Mozambican Women
Supply chain disruption is more than a buzzword, and its enormity is on everyone’s minds with growing visibility and consternation amongst consumers. Running into product shortages, backorders, and delays is the new normal. Between a historical labor gap, unprecedented demand, and a continuing pandemic, woman supply chain trailblazers continue emerging—bringing fresh momentum and best practices into the mix with them. These female supply chain leaders are fueling innovation to drive a brighter path forward.
At Let’s Talk Supply Chain, we understand the value of women tapping into our collective power as professionals in a male-dominated industry—together. Because when Women In Supply Chain™ advocate for each other, big things happen—breaking status quos and glass ceilings to help advance the entire community. At Let’s Talk Supply Chain™ we’re dedicated to continually doing our part each month. We’re committed to featuring the achievements of trailblazing women creating a stronger more vibrant supply chain and professional community.
In our Women In Supply Chain™ series, Let’s Talk Supply Chain introduces the woman leaders who are dominating the chain now, and unleashing better, smarter outcomes. We ask what and who motivates them and how each is doing her part to create positive change in their organizations, industry, and community. Let’s Talk Supply Chain™ covers the hurtles these woman leaders have conquered, big leaps of faith, and the beginnings that ultimately led them where they are today, leading businesses across the global supply chain. Read on for career advice, inspiring achievements, and expert guidance on breaking through to the top of the chain.
