Customer Reviews
In a previous life (15 years ago) I was a Director of Ops for a Fortune 500 company. As such I was rusty and in a hurry to be educated. I found this book to be ideal to satisfy both objectives. I feel more confident and energized to speak with clients and candidates alike and have found new means to utilize supply chain in my own business.
