What it is, when it makes sense
Many management teams have recently visited the Silicon Valley to learn more about players Facebook, google or Apple. Besides the spirit it is very challenging to transfer ideas from the Silicon Valley into the own chemical industry business models.
Learn on this training how the idea of digitalized and algorithm-based processes can be applied to a chemical company.
The training focuses on several core processes: sales forecasting, supply chain planning and supplier management. Also production planning – which is not required in the Amazon business model but highly important for chemical companies – is discussed.
With project examples from the chemical industry all participants get many ideas to apply for the ‘own’ company.
Our senior trainers can customize the training and go deeper in the topics which are most important for the training participants.
