Getting the job you want is not only a matter of having the most prestigious Master's or MBA. 🎖️
I identified 7 pillars that help you get the jobs, freedom & salary you deserve.
1️⃣ Be Clear About Your Desired Job and Why
Many professionals I coach are unclear about their long-term aspirations.
What do you want to become?
🔸 Director or CEO?
🔸 Supply Chain Expert?
🔸 Consultant?
🔸 Factory Operations Manager?
🔸 Freelance with work-life balance?
Supply Chain & Operations can be confusing (I was lost too 😜)
Clarify WHAT you want and WHY to define your next steps.
2️⃣ Have the Right Diploma and Certifications
Degrees like an MBA or Master’s can open doors but don’t guarantee long-term success.
Consider:
🔹 Avoiding debt for prestigious degrees to prevent poor career choices.
🔹 Continuous learning and self-reinvention.
🔹 Holding a master’s degree to stay competitive.
🔹 Earning certifications in data analytics, forecasting, and inventory management.
3️⃣ Gain the Right Experience
Experience with reputable companies & jobs is vital:
🔸 Choose roles in respected companies & sectors.
🔸 Engage in projects that build skills.
🔸 Focus on technical and interpersonal skills.
🔸 Surround yourself with inspiring mentors & managers
Early in my career, I chose a lower-paying job at Decathlon over a prestigious consulting company in Paris. I made 40% less to focus on growth, and I don’t regret it.
4️⃣ Master Strategic Hard Skills
Mastering technical skills in supply chain and operations is essential:
🔹 Identify and excel in crucial technical skills.
🔹 Aim to be among your company's top 5% of skill experts.
🔹 Focus on data analytics, automation, tools creation
🔹 Continuously update your skills.
5️⃣ Cultivate Essential Soft Skills
Technical skills aren’t enough; focus on irreplaceable interpersonal skills like:
🔸 Communication
🔸 Emotional intelligence
🔸 Time Management (Focus 20/80)
🔸 Stress management
Seek feedback to develop these skills.
6️⃣ Become a Top Performer, Consistently Deliver Results
🔹 Focus on improvements and the value you bring.
🔹 Identify impactful areas like service quality, cash optimization, and cost reduction.
🔹 Be precise with goals and consistently deliver value.
🔹 Communicate your performance regularly.
7️⃣ Have the Right Career Strategy, Be Proactive
🔸 Don’t wait for others to plan for you.
🔸 Develop a clear plan based on your strengths and weaknesses.
🔸 Identify skills to develop and learn every year
🔸 Ensure a clear career plan with your company and outside
🔸 Create an attractive CV & LinkedIn profile
