Every fall Dr. Charles Gallagher teaches Management 491 better known as "The CEO Class " and unique because every presenter is a CEO.

One of this year's speakers was G. Gilmer Minor III, Chairman and CEO of Owens & Minor, the nation's largest distributor of national name-brand medical and surgical supplies. To achieve this level of efficiency, the company has successfully combined a strong heritage of unparalleled customer service, supply chain expertise and high technology to become a multibillion dollar industry leader.

"Our core strength is being the most efficient distributor partner in the industry adding value through great service and technology-based supply chain solutions," says Minor. Among their technology firsts was creation of WISDOM an internet-based decision support tool that offers customers realtime account-specific data in more than 90 exportable reports to help the hospital track and analyze and manage their medical-surgical supply purchases.
