Leading From the Front
In my experience in both corporations and the military, I have found that procurement and supply chain people are more likely to excel and survive in chaos. They become excellent crisis leaders since they deal with more crises than their colleagues. Many evolve to the next level of preventing crises in the first place, developing risk management plans and pre-planned contingency plans.
They become crisis hardened veterans able to make the right decisions quickly and with authority. Most of us are more comfortable with a participatory democratic leadership style, but this just does not work very well during a crisis. Crisis management needs strong leading from the front. Procurement and supply chain leaders often step up to this level.
