    This document discusses various topics related to international logistics management, including planning, organizing, leading, and controlling logistics activities. However, it suggests that the unit may not be truly focused on logistics. Instead, it emphasizes concepts like selling, success, strategy, and sustainability. It provides information about the instructor, Dr. Lars Isaksson, and his background. It also raises questions about what business is really about and how companies can adapt to new challenges in an increasingly disrupted global logistics environment.
