“It was an excellent balance between academic information and real business experience. It was also very clear that the emerging competition will not be in the form of company vs. company but rather supply chain vs. supply chain. Executives must 'open' themselves and their organizations to understand the necessity of key relationships up/down the supply channel for future success. This program helped to place a new found focus on our 'core' abilities and how they correlate to our supply channel for most efficient delivery of goods.”
