In a short essay, explain how people can be an obstacle to effective management of a value chain

What will be an ideal response?

Answer: People can be obstacles to successful value chain management by failing to commit fully to the idea of meeting customer needs and desires. Without their unwavering commitment and willingness to do whatever it takes, a value chain can suffer. If employees decide to just "do their job" rather than to focus on adding value to the value chain, productivity will suffer and products will not be successful. To make sure that employees are committed to value chain management practices, managers need to do a lot of urging, coaching, encouraging, and motivating.
