Reporting the right metrics, in the right way, has contributed to securing supply management's seat at the table. At Sodexo, we hold two spots on the executive team, and supply reports directly to the CEO. We have seats on the marketing council and CSR steering committee, as well as on numerous other task forces within the company.
