Strategic Supply Chain and Ecosystem Management

The supply chain has evolved from a transactional operational function into a complex strategic asset and a critical determinant of competitive advantage. This course focuses on leveraging the entire **ecosystem**—suppliers, partners, logistics, and channels—to drive differentiation, resilience, and value capture. Participants will learn how to design supply chains that support various competitive strategies (e.g., cost leadership vs. responsiveness), manage complex global risks, and integrate digital technologies for end-to-end visibility. The program shifts the focus from managing costs to building a strategically aligned, agile, and sustainable value chain network.
