Yogizilla said An Academic Resource & Industry Primer/Refresher. To truly appreciate this book, you have to understand a few things going in. The author, Paul Myerson, comes from more of an academic background. In his consulting work, it seems he focuses more on strategy. As such, the topics discussed in this book are approached from a very high-level, if not theoretical perspective. To be fair, this book has more practical application than your typical educational resources but it's still pretty heavy on the concepts and definitions. The "what" and "why" are covered well but the "how", not so much.In terms of organization, "Lean Supply Chain and Logistics Management" does a. LEAN BY SUBSTANCE; FAT BY ORGANIZATION BOOKBURNER01 Very topical treatment of a very interesting subject that yields itself to significant analysis that could empower one to become an effective change agent.The author's organization of the book is lacking. Many pages appear to have been written as mere "page fillers" and convey very little substance to empower a change agent or a curious individual just interested in learning.Good editing, more quantitative analysis, downloadable templates would certainly make this book into an tool, not just a another book on the shelf.After reading this book, my newly acquired knowledge was lean indeed.. This books really shows you "HOW" to apply a Lean approach RM I received a Bachelor's degree and Majored in Supply Chain Management. Everything they taught us was a theoretical view, for example, on lean manufacturing, Kaizen, six-sigma, etc. However, this book is more practical and teaches you how to apply it in real life. I would most definitely recommend this book to any one interested in Lean Supply Chain Management.
