riskGRID™ Teaching ExecEd 2017/18
Our flagship programme – the two‐and‐a‐half day riskGRID™ Trading Game ‐ is presented separately. All
of these programmes also use Blended‐Learning (book, e‐book, blogs, 30 minute quiz, HBS‐style case
study, Pair and Team assignments as well as individual assessment) and where appropriate CLIL (content
and language integrated learning – eg provide a support teacher or subtitles in the participants L1, see
for example II.4)
Students have a major say in coursebook and other material we use: The skill‐based offer is largely
driven by commercial experience. This does not preclude using “best‐in‐class” texts or LMS where
available. eg:
Supply Chain Management: Strategy, Planning, and Operation, 6th
Edition
Sunil Chopra, Northwestern University Peter Meindl, Boston Consulting Group ©2016 Pearson
Description
For MBA or senior level undergraduate supply chain management courses.
A Strategic Framework for Understanding Supply Chain Management
Borne from a course on supply chain management taught at Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of
Management, Supply Chain Management introduces high‐level strategy and concepts while giving
students the practical tools necessary to solve supply chain problems.
The Sixth Edition weaves in compelling case study examples, providing students with clear insight into
how good supply chain management offers a competitive advantage. On the flip side, students also
learn the dangers of poor supply chain management, and how it can damage an organization’s overall
health and performance.
Using a strategic framework, students are guided through all of the key drivers of supply chain
performance, including facilities, inventory, transportation, information, sourcing, and pricing. By the
end of the course, students will walk away with a deep understanding of supply chains and a firm grasp
on the practical managerial levers to pull in order to improve supply chain performance.
