Ian O'Brien, Vice President of Supply Chain at the American Cancer Society, will discuss how executives should modify their decision making approach based upon the complexity of the situations they encounter. Complexity effects pace, who we involve, how we problem solve, and how we communicate. Hear about the challenging business transformation they are undergoing and how short-term, difficult changes will help ACS achieve their mission more rapidly. Also, learn how ACS's Supply Chain applies these concepts – ranging from common supply chain situations to their own transformation – sometimes leading to counter-intuitive decisions.
