This course was developed for professionals from any area or industry to learn the basics of contemporary Global Supply Chain Management to improve its management and understanding of current affairs and future trends. There is no mandatory prerequisite, but having some business experience will help participants make the most of the proposal of video clips, cases, texts, analyses, and content. From a unique approach, it adopts a strategic approach to the management of global supply chains. Such an approach will be useful even if the participant is not actively involved in supply chain management decisions because the knowledge acquired and developed will make participants better interlocutors in broad discussions involving supply chains that they may take part in their organizations.

Détails du module

Global supply chains do not have a common boss or a common owner. This poses challenges to the governance of supply chains. We will discuss such challenges and we will also describe three fundamental concepts that are behind many of the techniques that we will discuss along the course: the prisoner’s dilemma, risk pooling and the bullwhip effect.
