The Role of Self-Confidence in Success
If you see successful people, you will usually find that they are very self-confidant. Self-confidence may have come to these people on account of their success, but usually self-confidence is present in people before they become successful. Once they start working toward success, usually self-confidence and success run parallel, each fueling the other.

Is Ford's auto-xchange the "Real Deal?" (Survey Response 2)
In a recent video that was released by The Ford Motor Company, Ford's Vice President and Chief Information Officer, Jim Yost indicated that the company has to "share information in real-time" and therefore can no longer use "the sequential processes” in which there were many “handoffs" and "transfers of information." Yost also emphasized the fact that Ford needs to "integrate much more closely with their customers, supply base and even internally," as well as stressing the importance of making information available to multiple levels of their supply base "simultaneously," thereby eschewing the current "cascade processes that might take days, weeks and even months" to disseminate. To enable you to respond to this question, you can access both the video as well as the corresponding article by contacting the author.

What kinds of information and technology is used in Supply Chain communication?
Network Member Question: What kinds of information is being sent across companies in a Supply Chain? And what technology is helping you with that? I have been reading more about SCM lately, and I was wondering what kinds of information is being sent across companies? Is it all numbers and values ? Or unstructured data as well ? And how is technology helping you to do this ? Do you share a specific platform across these companies? Or does every company has its own, and is this connected to one another ? Which software enables you to do so ? Question Submitted By: Marijn Somers Functional Analyst/Project Leader Belgium

What is the Value in your Supply Chain A PI Q and A
Member Question: What is the difference between Supply Chain and Value Chain? My Response: To begin, the reference to supply or “value” chain is a misnomer in that it implies a sequential architecture. This is a term that is on its way out as an organization’s supply “practice” is actually centered on the synchronization of diverse stakeholders sometimes spanning multiple supply networks. This is an important distinction given the impact that real-world synchronization has on theories such as value chains. That said the concept of the value chain was first introduced by Michael Porter in 1985 in his book, Competitive Advantage: Creating and Sustaining Superior Performance.
