Supply Chain and Logistics - John Gattorna

John Gattorna is one of the few people who have been continuously engaged in the evolution of supply chain thinking, from the early days of 'physical distribution management' (1975), through 'logistics management'  (1980s/1990s), to the current 'supply chain management' era (1990s/2000s).

Over the last 25 years, John has taught and researched at several universities around the world; consulted to many major multinational corporations; and published widely on the emerging subject of 'supply chains'.

Indeed, John is generally regarded as one of the world's thought leaders in the supply chain management field, and continues to be much sought after as a keynote speaker on the international conference circuit.

Nowadays he holds visiting professorial posts in Australia and the UK, and continues his ground-breaking thought leadership, developing fundamentally new concepts designed to unravel the complexities inherent in the design and operation of enterprise supply chains.
