We have established a forum of pioneers for โIntegrated Business Sensing (IBSing)โ. We had already 14 cost-free biweekly calls (Mon 16:00-17:00 CET), where several SC leaders shared inspiring stories about providing transparency, improving collaboration, handling complex issues and the importance of aligning the business towards the organisation’s purpose. All critical imperatives during these exceptional times when automated systems need more of the ๐ผ๐ฎ๐ท๐ผ๐ฒ๐ท๐ฐ human factor in making key business decisions.
