A Supply Manager can make a difference when he/she procures goods as per specification and of right quality, at right price and deliver exactly on time. This will help the organization to overcome the supply related crisis. 

Certainly, Supply Manager would be appreciated either orally in meeting or in writing provided  he/she communicates all procurement updates to Senior Management  and users on time and keeps good networking with all colleagues and Senior Management

Well coordinated team,recognition and timely compensation can avoid many crisis

When it comes to your supply chain, a crisis would be a situation where one or more activities are interrupted, resulting in a major disruption of the normal flow of goods or services.  Basically, three types of crisis exists- natural disasters, accidents and labor shortages.

A supply manager must have certain leadership skills that are needed to properly handle a major supply chain disruption. What's more, is that the appropriate skills and tactics vary from stage to stage throughout the crisis management process.

Some companies give awards and benefits to their manager for a job well done. The company tends to attract the best professionals if they give incentives and benefits for work best done by their professional managers and staff.

I recently had an experience when the Covid 19 crisis started. During the critical months, the authorities forced us to work with 50 percent of the staff. The goals and obligations were the same but the challenge to give a good service is our essence, so individualism is a weakness. The union makes us strong before these scenarios, so the work team took the merits. There was no theft of applause, in fact we were recognized by our costumers and bosses.

First the manager should identify the problems leading the company to crises, then if there is any findings related to supply chain, he/she must modify the wrong supply chain system of the company from his/her past experience, and for his/her success the company can rewarded him/her an appreciation letter or certificate, upgrading its incomes & benefits, or it can give a bonus.

Its Common everywhere that when the product is not sold out than the supply chain managers is held responsible and when the product is having good sales than the sales team always gets on top showing their effors to sell the product.

but the management is always their to review the situation and reward the right person for right job.
