he awardgoes to anorganisation that has established a unique andhighly successful supply chain training programmefor its own


employeeswithout any outside assistance. Henkel launched itsGlobal SupplyChain Academy


in 2009 in its Laundry andHomeCare business unit. Two or three times a year, the academy draws together employees fromall around theworld at Henkel’s headquarters for three days of lectures and case studies. The aim is to familiarise employeeswith the supply chain strategy, challenges,methods and tools. People are particularly encouraged to gain


knowledge of supply chain processes potentially outside their current operational experience to improve their understanding of the entire supply chain. Senior managers join attendees for “fireside chats”


to share experiences and answer questions to build global supply chain team understanding. It is also an opportunity for seniormanagers to cascade down new strategic focuses.
