That’s why Dad & Husband are the titles on his LinkedIn profile. It’s also why he now believes demand forecast agility is more important than accuracy in the post-pandemic world of supply chain disruptions. On this episode of The Health Pulse, positive thinker, business reinvention leader and writer Sotelo joins host Alex Maiersperger to share his insights as a supply chain leader for organizations including Johnson & Johnson, Teva Pharmaceuticals and PepsiCo. Forecast accuracy can never be perfect, and in a scenario full of disruptions, Sotelo argues it’s more important to focus on agility and speed so organizations can respond to disruptions more effectively. In his opinion, prioritization plays a big role, and successful organizations have both a strong leadership strategy and investment in technology and analytics to create insights that keep the strategy on track. Sotelo predicts we won’t see a light at the end of the tunnel for pandemic-related disruption before 2024. But that doesn’t keep him from being optimistic about the role of supply chain leaders in shaping a better, more sustainable future.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/m8hUQ78mBe14CWUnUeezgC_G7RRJ8C4BuhGgXKZnPSc/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzEzNzE3LzE3MDgw/MjcwNTMtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
