The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into global supply chains is not just an inevitable evolution but a profound transformation that requires a new breed of leadership.The AI-Driven Supply Chain underscores the importance of building supply chains that are not only efficient and cost-effective but also sustainable and resilient. It highlights how AI can be leveraged to achieve these goals by enhancing transparency, reducing waste, and enabling more agile responses to disruptions. The future of supply chains lies in their ability to withstand challenges while contributing positively to society and the environment. Combining theoretical insights with practical applications, The AI-Driven Supply Chain equips readers with real world examples and interviews from companies like Nestle, PepsiCo and Unilever, and actionable frameworks that can be directly applied to their organizations. The book is designed to be a practical roadmap, guiding executives through the process of AI adoption, from initial strategy development to full-scale implementation and continuous improvement.
