Introduction

Welcome to the Compass Diagnostic for the 2026 Supply Chain and Operations Reinvention Summit: Leadership in an Autonomous Era 

This Compass is a quick survey that will help us generate and collect ideas, insights, and opinions prior to our two days together. Your input is critical as the Compass, like a mechanical compass, will give direction and context to Summit dialogue and contribute to the overall learning environment of our time together. 

Our learning will focus on how you, as a leader of the operations and supply chain functions, can not only manage the volatility and uncertainty of the present, but also drive reinvention and growth into an autonomous era. In particular, we’ll delve into how new organizational capabilities and cultural competencies can be developed within a firm and across an ecosystem of partners and suppliers, as well as how people and teams can be mobilized to turn bold strategies into reality.

The following Think Tank section will gather your ideas and help inform our discussions on these pressing issues at the Summit.

Your opinions matter to us and we appreciate your candid responses. Be assured that the information you provide will be confidential. Results will be presented in aggregate, and responses will not be attributed to you or your organization. 

The Compass Diagnostic should take approximately 15-20 minutes to complete.

Let’s get started!
