Strategic Thinking for Logistics Leaders
School Overview
The School of Supply Chain Strategy focuses on the higher-level thinking required to design, manage, and improve modern logistics networks. While many professionals learn how freight moves, fewer understand how supply chain leaders make decisions that shape cost structures, service performance, and long-term network resilience.
This school introduces the strategic frameworks used by supply chain executives to evaluate transportation networks, modal mix, inventory positioning, and risk exposure. Students learn how decisions around sourcing, distribution, and transportation interact across the broader supply chain ecosystem.
Courses examine how companies balance cost, speed, reliability, and resilience when designing logistics strategies. Students explore topics such as network optimization, cost-to-serve analysis, modal diversification, and the operational realities that influence strategic planning.
By the end of this program, participants will have a stronger understanding of how logistics decisions fit into the broader supply chain strategy, equipping them to contribute more effectively to long-term operational and financial planning.
