This book provides readers an in-depth understanding of the inner
mechanisms and principles of the global supply chain. Authored by
the Head of Supply Chain and Transport Industries at the World
Economic Forum, it draws on a wealth of operational and managerial
expertise in the global supply chain industry that drive the
world's economies. The book analyzes the importance and impact of
globally networked sourcing, production and distribution, and
presents detailed information on the opportunities, limitations and
challenges of linear value and supply chain systems. Building on a
series of recent industry cases and with a focus on the latest
developments in actual business processes and models, it reveals
how the transformation toward circular supply chains and
regenerative resource management forms the basis for success and
sustainability in business. "The book brings together technical,
social, political, and geographical trends, suggesting how supply
chain management can lead the quest for many of the world's most
pressing challenges." Yossi Sheffi, Professor of Engineering, MIT,
Head, MIT Center for Transportation and Logistics "This book
provides an essential roadmap, guiding the reader easily through
complex developments and concepts." John Manners-Bell, CEO
Transport Intelligence and Honorary Visiting Professor, Guildhall
Business School, London "With strategic foresight, Lehmacher
develops a vision of a circular economy within which consumer,
manufacturer and logistics companies assume collective
responsibility for sustainable value creation." Alfred Talke, Group
Managing Director ALFRED TALKE Logistic Services "Those who are
active in logistics and supply chain management, in practice or
academia, will discover a fresh view on the whole field of activity
beyond the day-to-day-business." Prof. Dr.-Ing. Thomas Wimmer,

This volume analyses maritime decarbonization from various
perspectives. It contains unique approaches and tools in four
areas: scenarios, value chains, enablers, and partnerships.
Decarbonization has become a very important focus in the maritime
industry. Anyone that delves into the topic quickly appreciates its
breadth and complexity. Minimizing greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions
in maritime practices at large and doing it swiftly is far from
simple. The Paris 2015 climate goals and the IMO ambitions may be
the industry’s guiding lights. But is this enough? Probably not.
At the managerial level a paradigm shift is needed: from a fixed
mindset that is calling for compensation to a growth mindset that
seeks to capture the benefits of decarbonization. This will require
a structured approach in the form of practical frameworks and clear
recommendations. In this book 75 scholars and industry and subject
matter experts have joined forces to explore different scenarios,
value chain designs, decarbonization enablers, and partnership
models to develop frameworks and recommendations around how to
effectively work and make progress. The books offers a valuable mix
of theory, practical tools, and real-life cases. Â Â
Dieses essential gibt Hinweise auf das aktuelle Risikopotenzial von
Menschen, Immobilien, Bestanden und Transportgutern, Verkehrs- und
Transportmitteln entlang der Lieferkette. Wolfgang Lehmacher
diskutiert vor dem Hintergrund der Anschlage in Brussel und Paris
anhand vieler praktischer Beispiele moegliche Risiko-Szenarien
terroristischer Bedrohungen sowie Sicherheitsstrategien entlang der
Supply Chain. In Zeiten, in denen die Terrorgefahr auch in Europa
wieder zum Alltag gehoert, mussen bestehende Sicherheitskonzepte
gepruft und potenzielle Schwachstellen behoben werden. Der Autor
zeigt zudem auf, dass staatliche Sicherheitsmassnahmen durchaus
auch Nebenwirkungen haben koennen und betont die Notwendigkeit der
Zusammenarbeit zwischen Staat, Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft.
Dieses Essential beleuchtet die Auswirkungen des Megatrends
Urbanisierung und sucht nach logistischen Loesungen unter
besonderer Berucksichtigung der digitalen und mobilen Revolution.
Weltweit ziehen Menschen in grosser Zahl in die Stadte - mit
schwerwiegenden logistischen Folgen: Wahrend die Versorgung in
landlichen Regionen immer aufwandiger und unrentabler wird, nahern
sich die Stadte dem Verkehrsinfarkt. Wird die "letzte Meile" zu
einer unloesbaren Herausforderung? Entwickelt sich die Versorgung
der Menschen in urbanen Zentren und landlichen Regionen zur
wirtschaftlichen Misere? Wolfgang Lehmacher gibt Antworten auf
diese zentralen Fragen. Mittels konkreter Beispiele moechte dieses
Essential nicht nur zum Weiterdenken anregen, sondern zur
Verbesserung der Versorgungslage in den Stadten und in landlichen
Gebieten beitragen.
Dieses Buch bietet eine umfassende Analyse und Darstellung der
zentralen Bedeutung der Logistik fur Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft
sowie ihre Rolle bei der Bewaltigung
derHerausforderungenunsererGegenwart undZukunft.Es beschreibtanhand
