Forging New Links was developed through a collaborative process by GEMI's Supply Chain Work Group. Bert Share of Anheuser-Busch Inc. chaired the Work Group, and John Harris, formerly of Ashland, Inc., was co-chair through November 2003. The development of Forging New Links was managed by Joseph Fiksel of Eco-Nomics LLC, with support from Les Artman, Accenture (retired), and Doug Lambert, Director of The Global Supply Chain Forum at Fisher College of Business, The Ohio State University. The cover art and overall graphic design were created by Dawne Brooks. The web-based version of Forging New Links was created by Allan Dudek. GEMI staff contributing to this document included Steve Hellem and Amy Goldman.
