CHICAGO, Nov. 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Kearney is proud to announce the launch of Strong Supply Chains Through Resilient Operations, a guide to navigating the supply chain turmoil of recent years and rethinking operations for competitive advantage in a volatile environment, authored by five Kearney partners.
Published by Wiley, the book explores five principles—empowering the supply base, operating for the customer, building resilient teams, combining AI with human judgment, and embracing sustainability—to transform an operations strategy. While every transformation is unique, these five principles will be present in every journey, and the authors help readers to think through their transformation end to end—from strategy, to action, to scenario planning for the future.
Strong Supply Chains features expertise from across Kearney’s global offices, offering a worldwide perspective that supply chain executives can benefit from, regardless of where they are based.
Early reviews for the book include:

This book provides insight into how businesses can combine technology and other operational improvements to achieve meaningful change and growth.” – Pallaw Sharma, Chief Data & Analytics Officer, Cisco
“An inspiring and practical vision for a more resilient supply chain—and full of examples of how companies are already transforming to achieve long-term success in a volatile world. […] Strongly recommend.”– Frank Wang, Chief Strategy Officer, Master Kong
