Course overview
Supply Chain Risk (SCR) and Supply Chain Risk Management (SCRM) received significant attention in the last few decades and continues to receive attention due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the energy and economic crisis. However, the development of the SCRM discipline was based on conflicting approaches, misconceptions of ‘risk,’ leading to contradictory and fragmented theories. 
While most academics and professionals approach SCRM from a ‘pure risk’ perspective, managing threats, adverse events, and mitigating losses, this course redefines SCRM using a ‘speculative risk’ perspective. This enhances tremendously the scope of SCRM by including the management of opportunities and the upside of risk. 
This course summarizes the key fundamental principles and findings of a 4-year Ph.D. research study. It is designed to deliver all key principles in a few of hours of coursework.
