Is this what the future of high-volume recruitment will look like? We hope so!
Let's take a look at how AI can save high-volume recruitment.
AI for recruiting is the application of artificially intelligent abilities such as learning or problem-solving designed to automate some part of the recruiting workflow.
In 7 steps we take a look at the impact of AI technology on recruitment.
Step 1: Your job posting receives receives hundreds of resumes which get collected by your ATS. On average, 75% of the candidates are unqualified.
Step 2: AI recruitment in the form of automated resume screening technology instantly grades and shortlists the qualified 25% of candidates for you.
Step 3: With a click of a button, you can set up interviews with qualified candidates using an auto-dialer, auto-texter, or auto-emailer.
Step 4: AI recruitment in the form of a chatbot can help you engage with candidates by answering their questions about the job and providing them with feedback about their applications.
Step 5: AI recruitment in the form of video interview technology uses algorithms to analyze candidates’ emotions, word choices, and personality traits to help you assess whether they’d be a good fit for the job.
Step 6: You can interview candidates online in real time or watch pre-recorded interviews on your own time. With a click of a button, you can invite candidates to an in-person interview or hire them based on their video interview.
Step 7: By automating or streamlining parts of your recruiting workflow, AI recruitment allows you to spend more of your valuable time engaging with candidates and partnering with hiring managers to make better hires, faster.

The Second
Quarter edition of the APAC Right
Quarterly is dedicated to Career Management.
The first article called “Developing Talent: How
Career Opportunities drive Business
Performance”, builds upon our core mission
in Right Management, of working with clients
to help align their talent strategy with their
business strategy. Employee engagement
and retention is a critical challenge for many
organizations, and this article talks of how
career development can significantly push
employee engagement. But even career
development needs a structured approach for
effective implementation to ensure business
results.
The second article on “Career Directions:
Having the right Career Conversations”,
shares a case study of an Australian client
who is working towards their 2017 Workforce
plan. An important impact of this will be in
the working environment for the division. To
help employees adapt to this change, Right
Management worked with them to create and
implement a career development initiative for
employees. The aim was on building Coaching
capabilities in People Leaders, and to equip Self leaders with skills necessary to enable
them to make their own career decisions.
The objective was also to align employee
development with future corporate needs,
while also developing career agility.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder
Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.

2. says Verkamman. It is a different atti-
tude to that of the supply chain director
who thinks he can do the same thing for
another 10-15 years.
Tap into young talent
But if personal development is restricted –
and lets face it, being a master of all new
and evolving trades is virtually impossible
- its worth remembering that there’s a new
generation of a talent a few tiers below
that is eager to share knowledge.
“A supply chain director today needs to
realise that there will be areas in which he
is no longer the expert. He needs to under-
stand his own weaknesses and make sure
that he fills these gaps, such as in technol-
ogy or handling big data. Traditionally the
supply chain director was supported by
the layer under him but today the exper-
tise he requires might be several layers
down the hierarchy,” says Verkamman.
“It’s important to tap into the new talent
and bring it directly in touch with sen-
ior management rather than go through
nicating within the company; the man-
ager of tomorrow needs to be adaptable to
deal with that. More than ever you need a
mindset for lifelong learning to develop
yourself on a continuous basis. If you are
not comfortable with that then you may
face an issue in future,” he says.
Pre-empt disruption
In the past it was said that leaders need
to be comfortable dealing with change;
nowadays they need to take that a step fur-
ther. “They not only have to deal with dis-
ruptive business models and technology
they almost need to embrace disruption
and become a front runner of change,”
says Verkamman. “We see that the bank-
ing business is being disrupted by mobile
phones manufacturers, like Apple, and
peer-to-peer banking, hotels have been
disrupted by the likes of AirBnB, indus-
tries dealing with digital content are
being replaced by streaming. If you are
not innovating someone else will and
you or your business will be out of a job,”
“Continuous improvement
also applies to supply chain
professionals”
The world is changing at tremendous speed and likewise the profile of senior supply chain management.
Gone are the days when you reach the age of 40 and can assume you’ve enough experience and
knowledge to carry you through the next 20+ years. A mindset for continuous development, to keep ahead
of business disruptions or simply remain interesting for the job market, is a must.
By Helen Armstrong
supply chain manager needs to have
more than just academic creden-
tials and experiences on a CV. Of
course that helps but a curious attitude,
to broaden your knowledge, the ability to
adapt and inspire as well as recognise one’s
own weaknesses are becoming ever more
important in today’s volatile environment.
In the past supply chain executives tended
to follow a steady career path, often emerg-
ing from a warehouse or transportation
perspective, picking up planning and man-
ufacturing along the way. Nowadays sup-
ply chain professionals often have a more
diverse background which might vary
from technical to finance or commercial.
“We see that some people reach the age of
40-45 and fail to realise that they still have a
20-year career ahead of them,” says Oskar
Verkamman, co-owner of Inspired-Search.
“However, the world has changed very
quickly over the last ten years and this
will be even more evident in future. New
business models and technologies are
emerging as well as new ways of commu-

deviates by 10-15% then a match could
still be possible, certainly if the person or
company are fast movers, to eventually
close the gap,” says Tuyn.
Furthermore, the stage of the company’s
development and the team can play a role.
For example, if the company is going
through or just completed a set of acqui-
sitions it might need someone who can
facilitate growth or someone who is adept
at consolidation.
“But there is not a status quo. Within a
few years the company changes and a per-
son can also grow in a different direction
so you need an evaluation moment to see
if they still fit together. If not then they
will probably need to split. It doesn’t nec-
essarily mean the person has to leave the
company; he could move to another posi-
tion and gain a different experience. This
is why lifelong development is so impor-
tant and why you need to be aware of your
value to the organisation and vice versa,”
says Tuyn.
job, it’s still no guarantee for success in
any type of company. It still comes down
to the right match between the person,
the organisation and the team. In this
dynamic world, companies need to more
responsive and as the balance swings so
can the profile of the position which might
no longer fit the personality.
“When searching for a supply chain per-
son at senior level we firstly try to perfectly
match personality and secondly his or her
knowledge with the organisation, the team
and the objectives, “ says Edwin Tuyn.
“If the supply chain executive is going to
be a part of management team then you
need to know what sort of managers are
already present because you don’t want
to add the same type of personality to the
team. Alignment is not something that
you can do only by looking at a CV or
LinkedIn profile. You need to speak to the
stakeholders to determine what they need
and where they want to take the company
and then talk to candidates to see if there
is sufficient alignment. You still might not
the layers when there is a danger that the
essence of the message will be lost.”
In general, the new generation is very
open and feels comfortable sharing infor-
mation with senior managers, says Edwin
Tuyn, co-owner of Inspired-Search. If a
director can inspire the team and recog-
nise and respect everyone’s contribution
then the team feels rewarded. A sense
of prestige and fun is sometimes more
important than a financial reward which
will come in time, especially if a direc-
tor is using the opportunity for succes-
sion planning. “It is very important that
we recognise that the world is changing
very quickly and every supply chain leader
needs to be comfortable with learning, and
he has to be flexible and mobile to deal
with the change,” says Verkamman.
Alignment in personalities
While a continually growing skill set,
range of international experiences and
ability to be mobile increases the likeli-
hood of you retaining or gaining a new

At the same time we train all our commercial teams how to build
a forecast from the bottom up. We give them the statistical fore-
cast and they can do their own overlays for their own country or
channel.
Our aim is to increase forecasting accuracy. We have all the
basics in place such as demand planning, S&OP processes, etc,
which gives us a big step forward. We are now moving into inte-
grated business planning, making sure horizontally and vertically
everything is aligned. Every step now becomes more complex.”
How are you creating alignment across the four pillars in each of
Diageo’s 21 markets?

the 21 General Managers, about the need to make this shift. We
organised training, comprising cross-functional teams to explain
what was expected of everyone within the programme.
We need everyone on board and we only move onto the next

first phase. Then the organisation is automatically drawn into the

What are your direct responsibilities?
“In July this year, the Route to Consumer programme became
Sales Operations Excellence. Under this banner I drive the whole
change in S&OP which means anything from establishing the
demand driven value chain, optimising distribution networks in
different countries, to helping distributors optimise their work-
ing capitals. Basically I cover anything not directly related to pure
sales, marketing or finance so it is very diverse.”
Did you have any blueprints for standardisation within the Route
to Consumer programme?
“We did visit some other companies for inspiration and we were
able to incorporate some of the best practises being used by our
American colleagues.
In a market meeting with our US teams we were shown how
they created a one-market concept. We all know that the US is
one country but with 50 different states and 50 different cultures
and it is important to understand these, and yet still treat North
America as a single concept.

Interview with Ivanka Janssen,
Director Global Sales Operational Excellence at Diageo
“We have one plan
throughout the company
that drives all targets”
Two years ago Diageo, the global leader in beverage alcohol with iconic brands including
Johnnie Walker, Smirnoff and Guinness, embarked on a Route to Consumer programme.
This is an end-to-end Supply Chain transformation and a shift in the way that Diageo gets
its brands from its own and third party manufacturing facilities to bars, restaurants, hotels
and retailers, both directly or through a network of distributors.

not going to be successful.
We have one plan throughout the company that drives all targets,
so there are no more separate financial, commercial or supply
chain plans. From the perspective of processes this is not that dif-
ficult. The difficult part is creating trust throughout the entire the
chain: Everyone needs to trust the numbers in the chain and use
them.
Fortunately where the transition has been made the benefits are
clear to see. The business is more predictable which is key. We
can scale-up or scale-down our innovations much more quickly
and those countries that have been through the transformation
are hitting their annual targets more easily.”
In the meantime you have appointed a completely new supply
chain team. What sort of people are you looking for?
“I don’t have anyone in my team who is a true supply chain per-
son: For example, one has a strong finance background with an
affinity with supply chain, another comes from the commercial
side and the rest are young people who are being trained. I select
people based on attitude and creativity as well as an ability to
think out of box and not be afraid to do something different.
We select our statistical planners based on a completely different
profile than we did before. We want statistical forecasters to have
a PhD or a very strong background in analytics or mathematics.
We complement them by having people up front who can com-
municate this information with the market planners and market-
ing guys. This dual approach is working very nicely.
Fortunately we don’t have a big issue with attracting talent, prob-
ably because we have strong brands and it’s a fun business.
I believe it’s important to bring innovation into operations. Many
people are too shy to try new things but I want people to come up
with ideas. Nine out of ten ideas might fail but at least you give it
a go.”

Oskar Verkamman as a speaker at the
annual Supply Chain Trend Dinner
2012: Recruitment is becoming a continuous
process and supply chain professionals
should be more flexible. Supply chain profes-
sionals are more often hired for a certain
period, most likely for three to five years.
2013: Oskar talks about Generation Y, born
after the year 1980, who are slowly entering
the labor market. “Supply chain professionals
who want to recruit them should inform ge-
neration Y about the bigger picture, give them
instant feedback and act fast.”
2015: Supply chain professionals should
maintain their knowledge and should also
be flexible, to preserve the interest of the
company. They should als ask themselves: “Is
there a future for the company I work for?”
2014: As the industry is standardizing – in a
random laptop you will find the same chips
– companies have to build successful teams
in order to distinguish their business from
the competition.

Waarvan gaan de harten van jonge talenten in supply chain management harder
kloppen? Wat willen ze en wat hebben ze nodig van hun werkgevers en coaches?
Hoe haal je jong talent in huis en hoe houd je ze vast? Jonge high potentials
vertellen tijdens een discussiemiddag wat hen motiveert.
Door Ingrid Essenburg
waalf jonge gedreven talenten in
supply chain management zitten
vrijdagmiddag 16 maart aan tafel
bij gastheer H.J. Heinz in Zeist voor een
rondetafeldiscussie over talentmanage-
ment. ‘We hebben alleen jonge professi-
onals onder de dertig jaar uitgenodigd’,
vertelt hoofdredacteur Martijn Lofvers
van Supply Chain Magazine, één van de
initiatiefnemers en moderator van de
discussiemiddag. De andere initiatief-
nemers zijn Inspired-Search, Inspired-
Careers en Slimstock Professionals.
‘Talentmanagement is hot’, constateert
Lofvers. Momenteel ook voor de gast-
heer. Want de multinational zoekt op
korte termijn meer dan honderd nieuwe
sinds zes weken hr-manager bij het
bedrijf. Zij somt de voordelen van H.J.
Heinz als werkgever op: ‘Je krijgt ruimte
om vorm te geven, maar die moet je wel
pakken; je werkt met lokale en interna-
tionale A-merken; je werkt in een jong
en enthousiast team; er is sprake van
een open en informele cultuur; we heb-
ben een intern, individueel trainingspro-
gramma en er zijn doorgroeimogelijkhe-

Edwin Tuyn as an expert in a
roundtable discussion.
With 40 years of experience in supply
chain development, John Gattorna still
is one of the most important thought
leaders in the domain. Not only is
his broad experience on show in this
new book, but also his clear thinking
about the development of supply chain
management, which is truly dynamic.
This requires clear leadership from
current and upcoming supply chain
executives. For them, and also for their
colleagues with other functional ex-
pertise, this book is an excellent guide
to the (near) future of supply chain
management and potential success of
their organization.

as supply planning and scheduling teams.
In the end we want to achieve better availability, reliability and
visibility for the benefit of the customers and the end users.”
How important has IT been to implementing the Kaname 1 pro-
ject?
“IT is one of the four key components, along with the process,
organisation and people to getting things right. But first, and
most important, we need to have the right people. If you only
focus on the IT you don’t realise all the benefits of the invest-
ments you make. My strong belief is that it is the people who
ultimately make the difference. I believe that if you press the
button and rely 100% on what the machine is telling you – what-
ever the sophistication of the algorithm – and ours are extremely
complex – you put your business at risk. You need people behind
the screen to understand what the black box is telling you. That’s
the difficulty with these sophisticated tools and optimisers. In the
good old days we used more linear reactions (small cause, small
What were the main challenges when you joined Bridgestone in
2012?
“When I joined I took the image of a cathedral and compared it
with our supply chain. My predecessor had built a very high and
large roof. This was the Kaname project which started in 2005:
Kaname stands for “corner stone”, hence the image. This very
wide roof is covering all European operations, from end of the
production line to customer gate.
I continued to build the cathedral by strengthening the pillars,
first the one that connects the roof with the upstream; at the
plants where it all starts. This was the Kaname 2 project. And
then I worked on the pillars that connect the markets, the cus-
tomers and end users of our products.
The connection with the upstream, through a powerful long term
to short term supply planning process, is almost complete and is
working with > 98% “ticket” accuracy (plant service level).
The challenge is to connect, firstly back and forth production, dis-
tribution and order management; secondly planning and transac-
tional processes; and last but not least customer oriented people

“We want people in
the supply chain to be
multi-skilled”
One in every six vehicles drives on tyres made by the Bridgestone Corporation. Under brand
names such as Bridgestone, Firestone and Dayton it has, over the last 85 years, built up a 15%
global market share just ahead of Michelin and Goodyear. Today it employs over 144,000 people
worldwide and operates 171 plants. The mission for the Tokyo-based company and the world’s
largest tyre manufacturer is to achieve Dan-Totsu – to be an absolute and undisputed leader – in all
aspects of business. To maintain market leadership and in line with its commitment to be lean and
strategic it is transforming its supply chain. Not only is this designed to improve customer service,
it has already led to an eye-opening reallocation of costs. In charge of the new strategy in Europe is

9. effect: large cause, large effect) but now you can change a param-
eter and nothing happens, then another one and still nothing
happens. But then, if you change a third parameter, the plan is
suddenly totally different. You need to get used to this somehow
chaotic, non-linear logic, that is characteristic of modern optimi-
zation tools.”
Is it a challenge to get the right people?
“Yes it is because we want it all! We want people in the supply
chain to be multi-skilled. They need to understand the technol-
ogy, the products, and the technical aspects of manufacturing.
We also want them to understand the market and be customer
driven and understand how their job contributes to the key objec-
tive which is availability to the end user.
On top of that they need to understand the P&L and how, as an
individual, they contribute to the financials of the company. They
are playing with inventory levels and therefore also with the cash
and the balance sheet. Their actions do not only impact the cost
to serve, but also the manufacturing costs because they impact
the way we utilise the plant capacities. And not all these impacts
are quantifiable as you also touch on intangible elements such
as the relationship with customers and the trust you build with
them; it’s the same on the plant side as the workers do not always
understand the ups and downs of the business. You need to be
very clever to understand the significance of what you are doing
and find the best global optimum. And you have to have good
global business acumen! So you understand why it’s quite chal-
lenging finding the right people!
This is a fast changing environment, always transforming. We
give people a lot of responsibility, with a high degree of freedom
to make decisions and see the consequences. People here have
an opportunity to work on some sophisticated supply chain pro-
cesses.”

10. SupplyChainExecutives
The supply chain leaders you need to know
Europe’s Top Supply Chain
Executives
Who are the most influential supply chain executives in Europe? Which leaders are truly shaping their
organisations and can be seen as a poster child of the supply chain universe? Who should you know in the
supply chain world?
By Martijn Lofvers, Marieke Lenstra and Sevim Garip
n collaboration with executive search
agency Inspired-Search, the editorial
team of Supply Chain Movement have
created a list of Europe’s top supply chain
executives based on several criteria includ-
ing span of control, visibility and awards
won (individually or with their supply
chain team).
Why do you need to know the top supply
chain executives in Europe? The answer is
quite easy: because they are supply chain
leaders – some of them award-winning
ones – who have a large span of control
and a great network and who know how
to make a big impact in the entire sup-
ply chain. You can learn from them too,
because they share their expertise and
transfer their knowledge by speaking
at events, hosting webinars and giving
media interviews. In other words, each of
them is a poster child of the supply chain
universe.
Supply Chain Movement and Inspired-
Search, supported by the input of other
executive search companies, have com-
piled a list of supply chain leaders who
are truly shaping their organisations. At
the top of the list is a supply chain practi-
tioner who says on his LinkedIn profile he
is “creating a legacy whilst making a dif-
ference”.
