The Beginning: Why A Blog? Why Now?


Why Create A Blog?

I have toyed with the idea of creating a business-related blog for some time now.  At first, the idea seems to be pretty labour intensive.  The pressure of producing a (literate) end product may take what could be an act of love and turn it into a laborious task.  But I think at this point in my career, I have a lot of work-related experience to give back to my peers.  Perhaps some fledgling millennial will find career-enhancing wisdom in my commentary.

I am not looking to bore anybody with this blog.  In fact, I am going to create the type of end-product that I myself would be willing to read: it has to be a fast informative read that offers almost instant applicability in today’s Supply Chain environment. This publication will also allow potential clients to assess my professional business maturity/intelligence and potential fit.


Inspiration

My content is going to come from you, the reader. I have asked my broader network and working community to provide me with Supply Chain related issues that negatively impact the productivity of their functional team or company.  This blog will serve to broadcast my response to these issues.  I might also offer anecdotal evidence of how I have attempted to deal with similar issues in the past. My response has always generated something beneficial: either my tactic provided the desired result OR it didn’t and I learned from the experience.  Either way, the topic offers you the reader the chance to empathize and learn.
