Also, companies are now looking to develop new methods in areas such as manufacturing, flexibility, transportation and information technologies in order to have a strategic superiority in their supply chain. Managers are key factors in the organizational performance and the success of the supply chains.

Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to investigate the role of managerial attributes and its effects on the supply chain performance. The data in this study are collected from the supply chain managers of large manufacturing firms (employee>50) in Kayseri. The results indicate that managerial attributes have impact on supply chain performance.
