5 key takeouts
Free up bandwidth
The more proficient at your craft you become, the
more time you’ll free up for new opportunities that will
put you on the radar for advancement.
Build a reputation
Make sure your stakeholders in the business think of
you as someone who can be relied upon to deliver.
Take a holistic view
As supply managers impact the whole business, it’s
important that we seek to understand as much of the
business as possible. This also applies to having a deep
knowledge of the commodities we source.
Learn from the best
Model your behaviour on the way seasoned people in
your profession deal with difficult situations, such as
handling a negotiation or diffusing a conflict.
Always ask questions
Find a mentor and take every opportunity to ask
questions about new assignments, unforeseen
challenges and other career advice.
