"John has been a pioneer in how to take supply chain from a cost function to a business imperative. His body of work takes the supply chain profession from the factory and distribution center floors to the board rooms as a strategic advantage for companies. The dynamic alignment work has taught our companies how to move from a 'one-size-fits-all' supply chain to a tailored and segmented approach that is rooted in science and the voice of the customer," said Annette Clayton, CEO & President Schneider Electric NAM & Group CSCO.
For more than three decades, Dr. Gattorna has been working with major blue chip corporations around the world to take his new model from the conceptual stage to a finer level of granularity; companies such as Dell; Ralph Lauren; Unilever; Teys Australia; Schneider Electric and DHL.Apart from researching, consulting and teaching, Dr. Gattorna likes to share his best thinking with peers and business associates around the world.
Currently, Dr. Gattorna continues to inspire future supply chain leaders on the 'fast clock-speed' capabilities that organizations need to develop for the volatile and rapidly changing business environments they face. His contributions also extend to support of diabetes charities for most of his career, in recent years as a business and supply chain adviser to the Life for a Child charity which supplies diabetes medication to children with Type 1 diabetes in developing countries.
