Season 1 · Episode 95
jeudi 25 septembre 2025 • Duration 46:24
In Episode 2 of our Supply Chain Career Catalyst series, Rodney Apple, Mike Ogle, and Chris Gaffney turn self-reflection into action. We map the career landscape with the SCOR lens (Plan, Source, Make, Deliver, Enable), show how industries (manufacturing, retail/wholesale, and enablers) shape your day-to-day, and explain why company type and size (public, private, PE/VC-backed, NGO/Gov) matter for pace and visibility. We close with five trends—digital and physical automation, data literacy, sustainability, evolving work models, and the frontline talent gap—and how to stand out as the translator who turns tech and data into real business outcomes. Walk away with concrete next steps to target roles, build agility, and accelerate your path.
