A supply chain is the process of all parties involved in fulfilling a customer request, while a value chain is a set of interrelated activities a company uses to create a competitive advantage. In Global Value Chain Management the authors bring together a variety of disciplines, showing how to move from traditional supply chain management to value chain management. Research from the (ISM) International School of Management, Germany, originating from a network of companies in a range of sectors, is integrated with case studies to demonstrate particular concepts.

Global Value Chain Management brings together theory and practice and presents tangible ways of creating competitiveness in a changing world through the use of effective models and frameworks. Challenging the traditional Porters Five Forces Model, the authors introduce the important academic disciplines of cybernetics and systems sciences as essential drivers of strategy within the supply chain. Online supporting resources include PowerPoints of lesson plans.

Industry Reviews
"Finally, the long-awaited synthesis of strategy and the systems approach! The benefit of reading Kamran's innovative, insightful book is a deeper systemic understanding: it enables superior strategies for complex value networks." * Prof. em. Dr. Markus Schwaninger, University of St. Gallen, Switzerland *
"With his innovative, holistic and interdisciplinary approach, Prof. Kamran delivers significant added value for research and practice. The combination of theory and practice by explaining different concepts and models and the corresponding illustration through case studies completes this worthwhile book." * Prof. Dr. Ingo Boeckenholt, Managing Director/President, ISM International School of Management *
"As a philosopher, not an economist, I am deeply impressed by Professor Kamran's book and his endeavour to host a dialogue between business strategy on the one hand and cybernetics, system thinking, and complexity sciences on the other. His language is lucid, his argumentation persuasive even for the layperson, and his interdisciplinary focus exemplary." * Prof. Dr. Dr. Holger Zaborowski, Professor of Philosophy, University of Erfurt, Germany *
