BEHAVIOURALINSIGHTS INTO SUPPLYCHAINRISKMANAGEMENT

Abstract

Literature has focused largely on the field of supply chain risk management. Numerous risks occur within supply chain management. Until lately, behavioural risks (implying large amount of losses) have been neglected and considered not relevant. In this paper we provide an analysis of the importance of including behavioural research in logistics and supply chain risk management, what has been written so far and potential future research directions. Until now, literature on logistics and supply chain management little addressed behavioural dimensions, neglecting the numerous human interactions.
