Abstract:
|
As a major field of within operations management, supply
chain management has seen a tremendous growth in industrial practice and
academic research. Its evolution has been propelled by an interesting web of
academic-industry interactions. I will give a personal perspective of how
this evolution process has taken place. It started with key industry
innovations, followed by academic teaching cases which then led to major
research initiatives. The resulting research outputs have motivated a new
series of industry practice and enterpreneurial activities, and the cycle
continues. Such evolution is a healthy one, enabling both academic and
industrial advances to take place with much greater productivity and impact. |
