[Jerry D. Vanvactor, DHA]

Great book! Worth the time required to read this work concerning supply chain management of the future. Traditional supply chain processes and practices are rapidly being realized as antiquated and future considerations need to include collaborative management concepts and technological innovation. Leaders will need to embrace this more and more if they wish to be considered, or remain, relevant.

[Ferhat Culfaz]

Quite top level. Some chapters more relevent than others. Nice case studies at the end. But overall aimed at high level managers.
