In this episode Gayle Schueller Vice President and Chief Sustainability Officer at 3M reveals how her company, despite a dauntingly complex product portfolio, manages to create transparency in their value chains, where it matters most. The examples of pulp and paper and conflict minerals exemplify the approach going beyond first tier suppliers to evaluate all social and environmental aspects until the very origin of the materials. Collaboration with suppliers, NGOs and peers are vital to create value chain transparency. The increased visibility helps to identify weak points in the chain and in turn improves the resilience.
