Despite the fact that most of the world see the pandemic in the back mirror, there are many industries that continue to feel its effects. Most companies feel threatened by disruptors of this magnitude. “As a global shipping and logistics company, we still suffer from labor shortages and increased levels of demand following the supply chain disruptions caused by the pandemic,” says COO of Shipping services at Wallenius Wilhelmsen, Xavier Leroi. “Global automotive manufacturers still face chip shortages and general supply crunches and both obviously disrupt our shipping and logistics planning. Our future joint success is therefore depending on how we live with increased levels of volatility.” How to deal with volatility?“Don’t forget the past, learn from it, that is our motto,” says Leroi. “Wallenius Wilhelmsen relies so heavily on our employees from every corner of the world. They are fronting new situations everyday and coming up with the best possible solutions to almost impossible challenges. Our teams will implement changes based on what we have learned from the experience of the past two years. When a similar situation happens, we are prepared, the experience of our teams standing in the front line is invaluable.” (....)
