Howard Schultz, the CEO of Starbucks, shared that insight during his keynote address at last week’s Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals (CSCMP) Annual Conference.

The supply chain is a complex system with finite, and non-linear relationships between supply chain metrics that drive balance sheet results. We find that companies can improve one, but not two of the metrics. Teams struggle to drive improvement in both metrics at the same time. A Look at History. Resiliency.

It is because the conversations at the conference were yesterday’s discussions. I heard Stryker share the story of adoption over a period of five years at the GHX conference last year. At the Logimed conference, no one in the audience was aggressively adopting the standards. Why do I call this Throwback Thursday?

Over the course of the past year, we kicked off a monthly newsletter, the free Supply Chain Insights monthly webinar series and the Supply Chain Insights Community. I really did not want to do a conference, but I have been talked into doing this by popular request. The first review came from a digital reader in Australia.

The supply chain is a complex system and these metrics are tightly linked in non-linear relationships. At conferences, I hear from many supposed “supply chain leaders.”

I rescheduled my Monday to meet with a client on a pressing deadline and worked through the night to edit and refine the reports/journals for last week’s newsletter. I also continued to work on the manuscript for the book Metrics That Matter to publish in the fall of 2014. The book is now a very worn manuscript.

As a result, the metrics have to be viewed together as a pattern over time. In the journey, the supply chain leader needs to improve the potential of a portfolio of metrics. The metrics of growth, Return on Invested Capital, Inventory Turns and Operating Margin have the highest correlation to market capitalization.
