Any advice for learning supply chain softwares as an individual? I am currently on the job hunt and see most job postings are related to tech like kinaxis, o9, coupa, blue yonder, etc. I feel in order to be competitive I need to have experience with one of these to supplement my background.

5 YoE in industry / consulting with focus on distribution logistics, supplier management, and SIOP.

If you have good supply chain functional/process and/or analytics experience the tech can be learned. That’s how we see it at least

All the products have an e-learning platform. You can try to check if there is a free course for the platform.

It will give you a good overview of the capability of the product vis-a-vis your actual process knowledge that you have gained through industry

"Everybody can be a leader" some say... "Leaders are nurtured not born" say others... True.

But... this is also true: "not everybody wants to be a leader" (whether they can or can't be). It is a fairly common practice in organizations with traditional career management structures for people to "be promoted" into leadership roles as the "end steps of the corporate ladder" that was climbed doing technical work. And, unfortunately, this doesn't work all the time
