		The Power of Resilience: How the Best Companies Manage the Unexpected

A catastrophic earthquake is followed by a tsunami that inundates the coastline, and around the globe manufacturing comes to a standstill. State-of-the-art passenger jets are grounded because of a malfunctioning part. A strike halts shipments through a major port. A new digital device decimates the sales of other brands and sends established firms to the brink of bankruptcy. The interconnectedness of the global economy today means that unexpected events in one corner of the globe can ripple through the world's supply chain and affect customers everywhere. In this book, Yossi Sheffi shows why modern vulnerabilities call for innovative processes and tools for creating and embedding corporate resilience and risk management. Sheffi offers fascinating case studies that illustrate how companies have prepared for, coped with, and come out stronger following disruption -- from the actions of Intel after the 2011 Japanese tsunami to the disruption in the "money supply chain" caused by the 2008 financial crisis. Sheffi, author of the widely read The Resilient Enterprise, focuses here on deep tier risks as well as corporate responsibility, cybersecurity, long-term disruptions, business continuity planning, emergency operations centers, detection, and systemic disruptions. Supply chain risk management, Sheffi shows, is a balancing act between taking on the risks involved in new products, new markets, and new processes -- all crucial for growth -- and the resilience created by advanced risk management.

Great lecturer!

This book is quite an eye-opener. It takes the concepts and overlays them with compelling real world events to bring the whole thing home.

Excellent book on risk management

As someone new to the realm of supply chain resiliency, I thought this book would be a great resource to grow my knowledge base. I expected it to have typical case-study examples, but what really made this book special was how Sheffi brought these stories to life. From his opening study on Intel's response in the face of the 2011 Japan earthquake & tsunami, it was clear to me why Sheffi has previously found success as a writer. I would recommend this book to anyone that has an interest in supply chain risk.
