Switchpoints for the Future of Logistics [electronic resource] / by Ingo Wieck, Martin Streichfuss, Thorsten Klaas-Wissing, Wolfgang Stölzle. - X, 86p. 67 illus. online resource. - SpringerBriefs in Business .
Executive summary -- The study presents a new, explorative perspective on the uncertainty of future developments -- Switchpoints are forks in the road of future developments -- Approach and methodology -- Topics, findings and switchpoints -- Detailed discussion of the 18 topics -- Implication of the findings.
Roland Berger Strategy Consultants and the University of St. Gallen's Chair of Logistics Management conducted this study in order to identify and assess switchpoints that will shape the future of the logistics industry. Rather than making projections focused on a fixed point in time, the authors instead aimed to identify the most unpredictable developments that could impact logistics. Consequently, the topics for discussion range from fairly specific near-future developments to more exploratory "blue-sky" topics. Throughout their highly interesting discussions with respondents and experts, the authors encountered a wide range of uncommon and unexpected, but not at all unlikely projections for the future.
