STEPHEN J. DUBNER

An award-winning author, journalist, and radio and TV personality, Stephen J. Dubner is the co-author of the in-ternational best-selling business books Freakonomics and Superfreakonomics. Originally published in the U.S. in 2005, Freakonomics instantly became a cultural phenomenon. Hailed by critics and readers alike, it went on to spend 4 years on The New York Times best-seller list, having sold more than 4 million copies around the world, in more than 35 languages. Dubner and his co-author, the University of Chicago economist Steven Levitt, have appeared widely on television and maintain the popular FREAKONOMICS blog. Mr. Dubner is also host of Freakonomics Radio, which includes radio, podcast, web, and live event programming imbued with the bestsell-ing book’s iconoclastic approach to everyday economics.

The FREAKONOMICS Phenomenon. The No. 1 business book hit the best-seller lists on its first day in print and continues to be phenome-nally popular in the U.S., Europe, Canada, and around the world, selling over 4 million copies worldwide. Freakonomics introduced to the world a new way of thinking – a way of getting beneath the surface of modern life – and the title itself has become a catchphrase spoken everywhere from college campuses to corporate boardrooms. The book has won numerous awards and its way of thinking also lives on the popular Freakonomics blog, which has been called “the most readable economics blog in the universe.” SuperFreakonomics offers an en-tirely new set of lessons to be learned. The book delves into the biggest issues of our time, such as healthcare, terrorism, global warming, the financial crisis, and much more.

The Freakonomics documentary is an anthology based on different chapters of the book. Variety calls the film “a revelatory trip into com-plex, innovative ideas and altered perspectives.” The documentary spent weeks among the Top 10 iTunes film downloads.

Batch and push scenarios don’t have the customer at their center and can’t respond to your customer’s expectations of “when I want it, how I want it, and where I want it.” Real-time inventory and customer-centric supply chain are two of the key needs of the food and drug business in 2015 and beyond.
