Whenever I tell a friend, colleague or family member about my job as soon as the words "supply chain" are muttered I immediately see glassy eyes followed by a yawn or two. Little do they realize that every time they discard or recycle a carton of milk they are completing the end of the supply chain cycle. Without supply chains consumers would be stuck using products that they had to make or grow with their own two hands. Still not excited, well visit often and eventually you will be.
Great Artwork This is just offtopic. But have you read the book 'Lean Six Sigma for Supply Chain Management' by James Martin. If yes, what is your opinion about it?
Are there any other books - recent ones that feature updated topics- that you can recommend? I have ordered David Blanchards book. Any information would be useful.
Sorry, I hadn't gotten a chance to read James Martin's book. I read Yossi Sheffi's book on supply chain security recently and that was very interesting. And about a year ago I read "How to Make an Elephant Dance" IBM's transformation story by Lou Gerstner, which has a few chapters on supply chain.

Thanks for the feedback.Are you aware of effective case studies that have used Lean Six Sigma techniques for inproving the Supply Chain processes
I have some but they are copy protected. Try the analyst firms like Gartner, IDC or AMR Research.
