Summary

• Macrologistics Management defines the term "Macrologistics" as a means for designing a catalyst for change in any organization. The "macro" approach means seeing the big picture - to use time and place strategies for competitive advantage. It is a "breakthrough" strategy because it prioritizes "logistics" as a key factor in developing customer satisfaction and market penetration. Traditional management approaches the product and cost savings as key factors in their strategy.
• This book demonstrates how new approaches can be even more effective and more profitable. It will help you achieve complete transformation in your organization through a systematic process for managing change and by using carefully selected management strategies.
