The senior management of organizations (except specialist supply chain organizations such as logistics services, shipping etc...) spends little time with their subordinates in this particular domain and with partners as compared to employees working in other functions.

In an era of intense competition with narrowing technological gap and diminishing product differentiation, the organization's can only differentiate themselves through innovative services and thus importance of supply chain (delivering products and services) comes to play a crucial role in the market. Three key elements of supply chain include people, process and technology. Focusing on these key elements across supply chain areas such as Procurement, Planning, Manufacturing, Logistics including warehousing, Customer Services, Waste Management, Retail Distribution and Outsourced manufacturing / services, would help organizations create that elusive differentiation. Thus "Linking@ppt..." is all about supply chain thoughts linked to people, processes, technology and their impact on society, consumer and their own organizations.  

Apart from the above three key elements, consumer activism and environment sustainability are emerging challenges for supply chain and thus the importance of integrating the needs of social communities in the supply chain.
The book contains open ended thoughts which could be adapted to various organizational cultures possibly with a slight tweak. The thoughts presented could be both valuable and debatable for anyone interested in Supply Chain including students, practitioners, managers and even senior management team of various organizations. In any case it is worth reading for people from the same field and for those who want to catch a glimpse of the subject.
