Building the Foundation for Next Generation of Procurement LeadersCPO Network-ProcureconNew York, NY November 4, 2013
30-Second Commercial • Established a new Supply Chain Management and Marketing Science Department effective July 2008, with over 30 full-time professors focusing on end-to-end Supply Chain Management, research, teaching and collaboration with industry. • Since 2001, we have had a very successful Rutgers Center for Supply Chain Management currently with over 20 world class corporate partners participating. • World class research program focusing on sustainability, responsiveness and flexibility, and risk reduction. • In addition to our very successful MBA program, we have launched a new undergraduate SCMMS program in 2009-now have 500 UG SCM Majors-doubled in each of the last three years. • Rutgers SCMMS program ranked # 3 in US by Gartner Research and ranked #20 by US News & World
Today’s Staffing Environment • More than 25% of the working population will reach retirement age by 2015, resulting in a potential shortage of nearly 10 million workers • During the same period, the replacement pool of 35 to 44 year-olds will decline by 15%. • At the same time, employee commitment levels are also changing • Only 47% of Americans say they’re satisfied with their jobs, dropping for over 60% in a similar survey 20 years ago • Workers said they were dissatisfied with their workload, potential for growth, work/ life balance, performance review processes, and promotion policies in their jobs. • Failing to manage your company’s talent needs is the equivalent of failing to manage your business. And yet the majority of employers have abysmal track records when it comes to finding and retaining talent • Leaders must lead and manage their staffing needs and spend an increasing amount of time acquiring, developing and maintaining their talent.
Additionally, Skill Requirements Continue to Change .. and Your Organization Needs to Adapt • New processes that didn’t exist 10-15 years ago • Strategic Sourcing • Supplier Development • Spend Management • New tools & technologies • Strategic Sourcing Suites • eSourcing Tools • Spend Analysis • Contract Development, Maintenance & Compliance Tools • Supplier Identification Solutions • Changing markets • Local to Regional to National to Global • Increased factors that drive market volatility • Higher expectations from the Business and your Supply Chain organizations • The transition from transactional to strategic activities • Continued value contribution

The Supply Chain Talent Shortage is Real !!! “The increasingly visibility and importance of supply chain management show a crisis building with increased responsibility, complexity being driven in part by globalization, and university and professional programs struggling to independently interpret industry needs.” “Universities have an opportunity to take a leadership role.” “Supply Chain Talent: State of the Discipline” AMR Research, April 2008
Partnering with Industry • Leverage a Center of Supply Chain Management (if Available) • Foster closer collaboration- close the gap between faculty research and business needs • Demand executive education programs on Campus and In-House • Visit the Campus Frequently-Guest Speaker, Lunch & Learn, Case Competition • Provide “win-win” internship, Co-ops and projects for students that leads to no risk hiring • Focus on end-to-end supply chain
Recruiting the Next Generation of Graduates • Leverage the “new breed” of Supply Chain Management and Global Procurement graduates • Many are dual degrees • Look for opportunities to “test the waters” through internships/Co-Ops or Projects • Different core values than other generations • Due to talent shortage will have more turnover • Will need a multi-prong strategy to make it work
