“Demand forecasts combined with historical knowledge, market insights and customer behavioral trends all contribute to a strong supply chain strategy,” said Flynn. “Diversity of thought — in both data analysis and the interpretation of information gathered — results in a rich foundation of knowledge. Women bring different questions, perspectives, a collaborative mindset and strong decision-making skills to the executive table, all of which can improve an organization and its bottom line. The research is clear — diversity is smart business. I thank Supply & Demand Chain Executive for this award and look forward to continuing to help Ingram Micro innovate and lead.”
Throughout the course of her career, Lisa has worked in many industries and is a proponent of adding and supporting female talent in the supply chain and technology space. She is passionate about nurturing future female leaders, showing young women there are pathways into these industries and helping them navigate their way into these worlds. Ingram Micro New Zealand is leading the way, not only within its own organization, but also through collaborations with other companies to highlight the broad range of opportunities for women in the technology sector.
