A "Supply Chain" book club
In order to promote the best books in this field, Supply Chain Magazine and Generix Group wanted to create a "Supply Chain Book Club". The purpose of this is to select Supply Chain books (logistics, operations' management, production, purchasing, etc.) and to encourage literary production in this field.
The Book Club meets every two months, with an author, to discuss a book. It is made up of some of the most well-known Supply Chain experts and consultants. Discussions tackle different points of view and promote the most interesting works. At the end of the year, there will be a prize for the best "Supply Chain" book.

Presentation of the book
The Supply Chain is formed of all the parties involved in satisfying a customer's request. Today it concerns every component of the company. Men and women in this field are not just "box pushers"; they are now the key and federating players of a company's performance. What is the best Supply Chain strategy? How should it be organised and how can it evolve in the company and with the external players that make it up?
Educational and illustrated with detailed examples, "Supply Chain - Management et dynamique d'évolution" recalls the basic concepts of the logistics chain, how it ties in with global strategy and how its performance is measured. It analyses the ways it is organised and managed, its improvement levers and the tools needed to adapt it and to move it forwards. Lastly, it offers new ways of thinking.
