Are you referring to more internal or external systems? If you're referring to the internal systems at your company, I recommend keeping documentation of all your operating systems and updating frequently. This is especially helpful when your team hires new people.

I attend conferences or webinars as well as listen to podcasts. I like Let's Talk Supply Chain. I also just got back from a conference in Chicago called the ProMat in which they talked about robotics, automation, fulfillment, and a whole bunch of other things. Definitely, one I recommend attending.

About me? People usually say I am their go to person for when they need emotional support, advise about relationships and when they feel low, maybe because I help them cheer up again and be the ear they need.

I am a great listener too. I can go on listening to you if you feel low, won't say a word until you are finished, will hold your hand when you are done and try to bring your sweet smile back!

Looking for input on changing positions from a Buyer to an International Logistics Coordinator. I have international freight experience and have a potential opportunity. Financially, the move makes a lot of sense. Would this be good for career trajectory?
