Nyomanlefthisfamilyandwenttohighschoolinthecity attheageofthirteen.Freedommadehimstronger.He relocatedtoSurabaya,theindustrialcentreofEastJava,to pursuehisstudiesofIndustrialEngineeringatInstitut TeknologiSepuluhNopember(ITS),oneofthebest universitiesinIndonesia.

BuildingaDisciplineWhereNoneExisted WhenNyomanreturnedtoITSafterhisPhD,hewalked backintoalandscapethatbarelyunderstoodthefieldhe hadspentyearsmastering.Supplychainmanagementwas, attheturnofthemillennium,analmostinvisiblediscipline inIndonesianacademiaandindustryalike.Companies managedtheirlogisticsinstinctivelyratherthan strategically.Universitiesdidnotteachit.Thatvacuum was,toNyoman,notaproblem.Itwasanopportunity
In2001,helaunchedthefirstelectivecourseonsupply chainmanagementinIndonesiaandsimultaneously establishedadedicatedresearchlaboratoryinLogisticsand SupplyChainManagementatITS,thefirstofitskindinthe country Withinafewyears,otheruniversitiesacross

Many companies invited me to train their people and strengthen their understanding of supply chain management."Thisparallel track,academicononesideandindustrypractitioneronthe other,gavehisworkadualcredibilitythatneitherapurely corporatenorapurelyscholarlycareercouldhave produced.

Heasserts,"I like to start something meaningful and let the seed grow. In most cases, I let other people manage them once things are working well."
TheYoungestFullProfessorandtheFirst
Hestates,"I got my PhD when I was thirty-one and became a full professor at thirty-eight. At that point I was the youngest in ITS and the first in this field in Indonesia."
