Leadership and supply chains in the new world order – what matters now
Odgers and H&Z invite you to an exclusive roundtable discussion featuring insights from executives in procurement and supply chain management. An evening full of exchange, inspiration and perspectives.
Details:
When: Thursday, 29 January, 2026, starting at 6 p.m.
Where: H&Z Head Office, Munich
What to expect:
Global power shifts, geopolitical tensions and technological advances are changing the way companies work together. For supply chain executives, this means increasing complexity, decreasing transparency – and a new meaning for leadership.
Control and trust are the central opposites that supply chain managers increasingly have to deal with. Added to this is a noticeable trend towards greater regulation in uncertain times. Dealing with dynamics, uncertainty and communication is becoming a crucial management task.
Together we'll discuss the main challenges of our time:
- How is the ‘new world order’ changing the requirements for leadership in supply chains?
- What role does trust play in an increasingly volatile environment?
- How can customer-supplier relationships be strategically rethought?
