Sascha Teifke talks supply chain: Crisis and Continuity all for the Company

This week we listen to Sascha's story. Sascha Teifke is Senior Manager Physical & Personnel Security / Crisis Management at ZF Friedrichshafen AG and early on understood the value of joining forces with supply chain management teams. Security and business continuity are synonymus with crisis management for decades in company.
Supply chain is a late adopter of crisis management principles and the exchange between these functions just makes so much sense.
 
In this episode you can learn:
- How to manage a crisis
- How to prepare for a crisis
- How to guide a crisis when you are far far away
- How to implement preventive measures
 
Overall an episode with a wealth of knowledge, but what both of us really want to inspire you to do, is to look for opportunities to collaborate with your security and business continuity department. And both of us playing in bands can tell you about collaboration and being in sync, maybe there is something to that in there as well.
Supply chain pioneers is available on youtube at 'Ulf talks supply chain' and on all podcast platforms.
 
Hope you have fun! Tell me how you liked this episode.
