New Business Book Just Released - Common Sense Supply Management: Tales from the Supply Chain Trenches

Author and businessman, Dr. Tom DePaoli is pleased to announce his new book, Common Sense Supply Management: Tales From The Supply Chain Trenches.

Milwaukee, WI, September 21, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Common Sense Supply Management is a no-holds-barred practical guide to supply management and process improvement. If readers dislike consultants, buzzwords and theory, then this non-traditional book is meant for them. Straight forward and to the point, the book will be difficult to put down until readers have finished the supply management adventure. Dr. Tom DePaoli, a veteran supply management pro, learned his lessons the hard way and wants to share his valuable insights with all business professionals.

In his new guide to supply management, author Dr. Tom DePaoli offers no-nonsense strategies learned from his diverse career in many organizations. Told in part via a story format, Common Sense Supply Management - Tales From the Supply Chain Trenches uses real life examples to discuss what goes right, and often wrong, in the supply chain management trenches. The stories are told factually without any embellishing notes to distract the reader. By carefully following this book's accounts, supply management professionals can learn a career's worth of what to do and what not to do. DePaoli provides practical lessons launched from real-life cases and tested in the unforgiving supply chain management reality.

Supply chain management continues to form the backbone of most companies. Knowing how to orchestrate its complexity can give an organization a strong competitive edge. The supply managers who are willing to take the journey and possess the indomitable spirit necessary to succeed will greatly benefit from this unorthodox but powerful guide.

“Supply management covers more breadth and depth than any other discipline in an organization,” says DePaoli. “It is the art of building multiple relationships.”
