A 25 year veteran of the supply chain and logistics industry blogs on all things logistics. Experience in 3PL, automotive and consumer goods logistics help bring a unique insight to this topic
I am going to use today's posting to refer you to one of the most brilliant people I have ever met and had the pleasure to listen to: Clay Christensen. When I attended the General Management Program at the Harvard Business School he taught two class sessions for us and was mesmerizing. Many of you have probably (hopefully) read his various classic books on innovation starting with "The Innovators Dilemma" (note: if you are in a leadership position in a company and have not read this book, you do so at your own peril).
He has now written a business / life book entitled "How Will You Measure Your Life". I am attaching two videos here. The first is him speaking about this book and the innovation topics in a detailed, entertaining and profound talked at the Linkedin Headquarters.
The second video is his much shorter but also impactful "Tedx Talk" in Boston on this topic.
I will be back to logistics later and I wanted to ensure I did my part to share the wealth of this brilliant man.
