Wow as an introvert who likes to be a perfectionist and not deal with so many people I find a lot of these jobs under one degree very doable.
Absolutely! It's wonderful to hear that you're finding value in the opportunities within this field. 🌟 Supply chain and logistics offer a diverse range of roles that cater to different strengths and preferences, including those who prefer a more focused and detail-oriented approach.
Whether you're an introvert or extrovert, the world of supply chain management has a place for everyone. From optimizing processes behind the scenes to ensuring smooth operations that impact countless lives, there's something truly special about the role each person plays in this dynamic field.
Your drive for perfectionism will be a valuable asset in maintaining the precision and efficiency that are so crucial in supply chain and logistics. Keep exploring and learning, and remember, your unique skills are an essential part of this thriving industry! 🚀💼🌐 thank you for watching!
I'm an introvert myself I can 110% confidently say that unless you're the driver you will be dealing with people constantly in logistics.....especially if you're in any kind of leadership roll. AND most of that interaction will be dealing with dramaqueens (aka drivers).
Its more like being a hostage really. So if you think you'd enjoy being a hostage you may like logistics.
Hey there! 😄 Thanks for sharing your perspective! It's true, logistics does involve a lot of interaction, especially if you're in a leadership role. While it might sometimes feel like handling a whirlwind, it's also an opportunity to master the art of managing different personalities and situations. Every challenge is a chance to grow, and with the right approach, even the most demanding interactions can become valuable learning experiences. In my eyes, truckers are the unsung heroes of logistics, so I don't agree with that part. I have seen first hand their dedication and hard work, and how they are the ones that keep the world moving, literally! 🚚💨 It's essential to recognize the challenges they face and the crucial role they play in ensuring goods reach their destinations. I have an immense respect for truckers and appreciate their contributions to the logistics industry.
@@MVCLogisticsAcademy As someone who's been a truck driver and a logistics manager (25 million revenue level) this response is the same lip serve HR types give their employees.
Drivers do make the world to round and yes are drama queens. Of which I totally understand and empathize because I was one.
Pizza parties and gold stickers aren't what truckers are looking for.
They simply want left alone, to be paid a good living wage, and their work life balance respected. Often times companies promise the world to drivers then fail to even uphold their end. Once your truck leaves the dock they don't care nor do the freight brokers even know what questions to ask to ensure a good delivery.
As a trucker all I wanted was to work 40 hrs, get a decent paycheck, and not work weekends or holidays. That's rarely a reality. Usually you're working 70 hr weeks and odd hours. It's pretty awful if you value your life.
I'm just saying talk is cheap and putting lipstick on a pig doesn't make it any prettier.
MOST people don't wanna work 70 hr work weeks. If we wanna solve the trucker shortage companies need to be willing to voluntarily lose money by keeping hours to 40 hrs a week. Right now many companies would love to offer 40 hrs work weeks but can't cuz of demand....employers promise "we'll go to 40 hrs work weeks when we get fully staffed". Yeah yeah yeah.....12 yrs hearing that crap. It's NEVER staffed and thus the shortage will continue. A company would have to say to their customers "sorry we're booked until we hire more people". But that will never happen because money is more important than building a solid culture.
@@MVCLogisticsAcademy also have to add this.
Companies will ALWAYS favor profit over their workers. An example of this would be female truck drivers.
They're extremely extremely rare. You might find one that does line hauls bumping docks or drives a small FedEx van delivering small boxes. But it's unlikely you'll see them doing a hard job like Sysco or some other kind of final mile food delivery. Why? Because it's brutally hard, many men can't even do it.
There have been some women I've interviewed and was told they were only there to meet a quota and instructed to not hire them. Granted they were average women you'd find at an office or at a cashier job. But they wanted to be truck drivers, I even explained the difficulty to them and how they'd be expected to lift 70 lbs regularly throughout the day and a minimum of 10,000 steps. They didn't seem phased by it. Still wanted to try and me personally I was willing to give them a shot. I think ultimately the job would have been too much for them, fuck i can't even do it anymore. But I can't deny a woman a job like that.....but was told I needed too deny her.
My point in this is. Many of the final mile local truck driving jobs are designed for men to do them. Men are stronger on average than women are.
These companies aren't going to redesign their profit margins to accommodate women's abilities. Until the govt tells them they need to make the jobs easy enough to allow women to participate they never will. Too much profit to be had.
I would love for this to be come reality. That would mean these jobs become easier, safer, better work life balance, and reduce turn over
Great information, as a supply chain, transportation, and logistics management student, I'm focusing on logistics engineering once I graduate in 2024. I would love more information in this function of supply chain management. Thanks in advance. Love this channel.
Thank you so much! 🙂
I wish you the best of the luck with your journey. If I can be of any help, here's a list of potential jobs in logistics engineering, along with their estimated salaries and education requirements:
•Logistics Engineer: A logistics engineer is responsible for optimizing logistics operations, including transportation, inventory management, and supply chain efficiency. The average salary for a logistics engineer is around $75,000 to $95,000 per year, and the education required is typically a bachelor's degree in industrial engineering, supply chain management, or a related field.
•Supply Chain Analyst: A supply chain analyst uses data and analytical tools to optimize supply chain performance, identify inefficiencies, and improve processes. The average salary for a supply chain analyst is around $60,000 to $80,000 per year, and the education required is typically a bachelor's degree in logistics, supply chain management, operations research, or a related field.
•Transportation Engineer: A transportation engineer designs and manages transportation systems, including highways, airports, and railroads. The average salary for a transportation engineer is around $75,000 to $95,000 per year, and the education required is typically a bachelor's degree in civil engineering, transportation engineering, or a related field.
•Inventory Control Manager: An inventory control manager oversees inventory levels and ensures that materials and products are available when needed. The average salary for an inventory control manager is around $65,000 to $85,000 per year, and the education required is typically a bachelor's degree in logistics, supply chain management, or a related field.
Please note that these are just some estimates I found online, and things can vary based on your experience, location, and more specific industry. Also, keep in mind that some of these roles may require additional certifications or specialized training beyond your degree. And again, good luck Kourtney!

@@MVCLogisticsAcademy thank you so much for such a detailed response. This is very helpful 👌👌.
Can you do a breakdown on what this would like in an actual company? How would the corporate hierarchy look for a company’s internal supply chain?
Hopefully what I am asking makes sense.
Absolutely, I'd love to explain how the corporate hierarchy might look within a company's internal supply chain!
In a typical company, the internal supply chain structure is often organized to ensure smooth operations and efficient management of the flow of goods and services. Here's a breakdown of how it might look:
Senior Management/Leadership: At the top of the hierarchy, you'll find senior executives like the CEO, COO (Chief Operating Officer), or Chief Supply Chain Officer. They set the strategic direction for the company's supply chain, oversee major decisions, and align the supply chain goals with the overall business objectives.
Supply Chain Management: Under the senior leadership, there might be a team of supply chain managers or directors. These professionals oversee specific aspects of the supply chain, such as procurement, logistics, inventory management, or demand planning. They're responsible for implementing strategies and ensuring that operations run smoothly within their areas of expertise.
Procurement Team: Within the supply chain department, there's usually a procurement or purchasing team. They handle the sourcing, negotiation, and purchasing of raw materials, components, or services required for production. This team might include procurement managers, buyers, and sourcing specialists.
Logistics and Distribution: Another critical part of the internal supply chain is the logistics and distribution team. They manage transportation, warehousing, and the movement of goods from production facilities to distribution centers and finally to customers. This team might include logistics managers, warehouse supervisors, and transportation coordinators.
Inventory Management: The inventory management team focuses on optimizing stock levels, reducing excess inventory, and ensuring sufficient supplies without overstocking. They might include inventory analysts, planners, or specialists.
Operations and Production: While not always directly under the supply chain umbrella, the operations and production teams work closely with supply chain professionals. They oversee the manufacturing or production process, ensuring that goods are produced efficiently and meeting quality standards.
Remember, the specific structure and titles can vary widely between companies and industries. This breakdown gives you an idea of how the different segments of the supply chain might fit into the broader corporate hierarchy.
I hope this breakdown helps! We will work on making a more detailed video post about it soon. Feel free to ask if you'd like more details or have further questions😊📦✨
Thanks for the reply.
Awesome video. It really helped me narrow down my long term goal instead of just getting a degree. Are all of these careers obtainable with a degree in SCM? What about a degree in logistics?
Hey there! 🌟 Thank you so much for your kind words, and I'm thrilled to hear that our video has been helpful in shaping your long-term goals! 🚀✨
Absolutely, a degree in Supply Chain Management (SCM) opens up a world of possibilities! It's not just about getting a degree; it's about gaining the knowledge and skills that can lead to diverse and exciting career paths. Many careers in the supply chain field, such as supply chain analyst, logistics manager, procurement specialist, and operations manager, are very attainable with a degree in SCM.
Now, when it comes to logistics, a degree in logistics is equally valuable! It's a specialized field within the broader spectrum of supply chain management. With a logistics degree, you can aim for roles like logistics coordinator, transportation manager, warehouse manager, or distribution center supervisor.
So, whether you choose Supply Chain Management or Logistics, you're setting yourself up for a dynamic career in a field that's constantly evolving. The key is to align your coursework, internships, and experiences with your specific interests within the supply chain world.
Feel free to explore different areas within SCM or logistics during your academic journey, and don't hesitate to dive into internships or networking opportunities to gain hands-on experience. Remember, your degree is a powerful tool, but your passion and hands-on experience will truly set you apart!

Congratulations on earning your bachelor's degree in supply chain, transportation, and logistics management! 🎉🌟 That's such an incredible achievement, and I'm thrilled to hear about your accomplishment. 👏🎓 You've invested your time and effort into acquiring valuable knowledge and skills in a field that plays a critical role in so many industries. 🚚✈️ Now, you're equipped with the expertise to navigate the complexities of supply chain management, transportation logistics, and more. I wish you all the best as you embark on this exciting journey in your career! 🌟💼 If you ever need any support or guidance along the way, we are here for you. 🚀📦
I am looking to switch career to SCM(logistics) I have a BSC in a different field but I plan to go to school for a course in SCM. I am in between the options of a 2 year diploma or a 1 year graduate certificate but leaning more to a 1 yr graduate certificate because I think it’s faster to get into me into the field and start working. What’s your advise on this pls?
Hey there! 🌟 Thank you so much for reaching out and sharing your career journey with us! Switching to supply chain management (logistics) sounds like an exciting and promising move. I'm thrilled to offer some advice to help you make the best decision for your future! 💼🚚
Both options, a 2-year diploma and a 1-year graduate certificate, have their merits. Here's my joyful take on it:
🌟 Graduate Certificate: Going for a 1-year graduate certificate could indeed be a quicker route to enter the field. It's a focused program that hones in on specific SCM skills, helping you build a solid foundation in a shorter timeframe. This could get you into the workforce sooner and kickstart your logistics career!
🌟 2-Year Diploma: On the other hand, a 2-year diploma might offer a more comprehensive and in-depth education in supply chain management. You'll have additional time to delve into various aspects of SCM, which could potentially open up more advanced career opportunities down the road.
My advice? 🌈 Follow your instincts and consider what aligns best with your career goals and learning preferences. Reflect on your current skills and how the chosen program can complement your existing knowledge.
It might also be helpful to research the specific courses offered in both options and see which curriculum excites you the most. Don't forget to reach out to alumni or professionals in the field to get their insights on how each program has helped them in their careers.
Remember, the journey is all about personal growth and finding the right path that sets you up for success. Trust your instincts and choose the option that feels like the perfect fit for you! 💪💡
We're cheering you on every step of the way as you embark on this fantastic SCM adventure! Good luck, and may your logistics dreams come true! 🚀🌟✨
Do a demand planner and a supply chain analyst have a similar skillset? Do i need to know everything about data analytics like coding and visualisation ect. in order to be a supply chain analyst or planner? If I have learnt financial analysis and basic accounting from my degree, can all my skills be transferred into demand planning or analytics? Please enlighten me 🙏
Absolutely, I'd be happy to help! 🌟 Demand planning and supply chain analysis are closely related fields, but they do have some distinct differences in their focus.
Demand Planner vs. Supply Chain Analyst:
Demand planners primarily focus on forecasting future demand for products or services. They analyze historical data, market trends, and other factors to predict customer demand. Communication and collaboration skills are key since they often work closely with sales and marketing teams.
Supply chain analysts, on the other hand, have a broader scope. They not only deal with demand forecasting but also optimize the entire supply chain process. This includes inventory management, logistics, and sometimes even production planning. Analytical skills, including data analysis, are crucial for supply chain analysts.
Skills for Supply Chain Analysts and Demand Planners:
While you don't need to be an expert in coding and visualization to start in these roles, having a basic understanding of these concepts can be immensely beneficial. Tools like Excel, SQL, and data visualization software (like Tableau or Power BI) are commonly used in both fields. Being comfortable with data helps in making informed decisions and understanding supply chain patterns.
Your background in financial analysis and basic accounting is valuable! Financial analysis skills, such as understanding cost structures and profit margins, can be directly applied to both demand planning and supply chain analysis.
Transferring Skills:
Your ability to analyze financial data gives you a strong foundation for understanding the cost implications within the supply chain. Many concepts from financial analysis, like budgeting and cost-benefit analysis, are relevant in supply chain decision-making.
Additionally, your analytical mindset developed through financial analysis can certainly be applied to data-driven tasks in supply chain roles. With the right training and exposure to relevant tools, you can bridge the gap between financial analysis and supply chain analytics effectively.
Remember, continuous learning is key in these fields, especially as technology and methodologies evolve. Stay curious, keep exploring new tools and techniques, and you'll find yourself well-equipped for a successful career in demand planning or supply chain analytics! Best of luck!🚀📊🌍

Is this field competitive? In your opinion, would someone who spent years in the Army as a Transportation Management Coordinator (88N), with a BS in Logistics, have a hard time finding employment in the civilian world?

What about shipping line and freight forwarders?? Is this also a part of the logistics?? Nah though
Absolutely! 😊 You're spot on! Shipping lines and freight forwarders are indeed crucial components of the logistics industry, but we didn't get to them in the span of this video in particular. 🚢✈️
Shipping lines are responsible for transporting goods via sea routes, while freight forwarders are the experts who coordinate the entire shipping process, from pickup to delivery, across various modes of transportation, including sea, air, rail, and road. They handle everything from documentation and customs clearance to warehousing and distribution.
Together, shipping lines and freight forwarders play a vital role in ensuring that goods are efficiently and safely transported from one point to another, both domestically and internationally. So, yes, they are absolutely part of the logistics puzzle! 🌟

Some of these job titles seem like they're redundant and overlapping. Is this the case MVC?
Hey there! 🌟 Thanks for your comment! I totally get where you're coming from. It's common to see job titles in the supply chain and logistics industry that might seem similar or even overlapping at first glance. However, each role usually has its own unique set of responsibilities and focuses on different aspects of the overall process.
For example, while roles like supply chain manager, logistics coordinator, and procurement specialist may all involve aspects of managing the flow of goods, they often have distinct focuses within the broader supply chain ecosystem.
The key is to understand how each role contributes to the overall efficiency and success of the supply chain. Sometimes, what may seem redundant or overlapping on the surface actually reflects the complexity and interconnectedness of modern supply chain operations.
If you ever need more clarification on specific job titles or roles within the supply chain, feel free to reach out! We're here to help 😊🚚
