ID:
Going back to the overall supply chain workforce results, across all managerial levels,
fewer respondents reported improvement in 2024. Reported improvement in
representation and inclusion at manager and senior manager levels has dropped off
sharply year over year. We are back to a 2019-2020 profile. The drop two years
running at the manager level is particularly concerning because this is where
leadership pipelines are made or broken.
The drop-off in reported improvements is less acute at more senior levels, but down
two to four points nonetheless. Our concern is that the plateauing of representation
we see in Figure 1, combined with degraded progress at more junior levels reported
here, will prolong the plateau, or worse, materially shrink pipelines.
