How Companies and Nations Can Thrive and Prosper in an Uncertain World

The authors of this groundbreaking work, Christopher Gopal and Gene Tyndall, both former partners at Ernst & Young, Eleftherios Iakovou, professor at Texas A&M University, and Wolfgang Partsch, inventor of the SCM term, are leading experts in the field of SCM. Their first book "Supercharging Supply Chains" (1998) was an international success.

The new book is essential reading to understand the future of supply chains and clarifies, among other things, what supply chains really are and why we need them. In the 21st century, efficient and resilient operations are crucial and the importance of functioning and reliable supply chains cannot be overemphasised.

"Breakthrough Supply Chains" provides a comprehensive overview of end-to-end supply chains and dispels common myths. It is a timely guide that encourages rethinking and reinventing supply chains through breakthrough thinking. It also addresses critical issues affecting business and policy.
