2.25 speed

This was an awesome listen, especially with Mr. Yen! I listen with it sped up while reading the actual book for information retention. This was by far one of my favorites delving into the fundamentals of Supply Chain Management. So many nuggets if one is receptive. If you're in the field, this is a wonderful refresher. If not, wonderful primer. Looking forward to my next listens!

Great quick overview

Simple language and relatively solid yet broad introduction to SCM. Highly recommend for those not directly accountable for SCM work but needing enough background to understand the topic.

Good introduction

A good theoretical introduction. Easy to follow and understand. I really liked the part where it gives Carter and education advices . I would suggest to come with a hard copy of the web links and images and refrain from spelling out all the letters in a web link - such a waste of time!
