What are some things that you do to help focus throughout the day? For me, it is just blocking out time and working on smaller tasks and getting those out the way so that I have more time for the bigger ones.

Tackling smaller tasks is how I have to look at everything. I hate to admit I can get pretty overwhelmed looking at a lot of huge things, but taking it apart and being able to check off a lot of little things helps me get through work and also gives me that sense of accomplishment.

I find myself struggling with the smaller task. I think working on those first would prove to be better.

Setting up presentation slide decks earlier than needed. And breaking down the to-do list. It makes it easier to check in with my team to see if there is anything they need training on or need to go over.

Thank you for the feedback! I really like the presentation slide part!

Less of a question, more of a request... stop asking your junior BIPOC strats to work on BLM briefs because they are the only voice of color on your team. In a time where we need support grappling with our very REAL realities and how it impacts how we show up in the agency, the LAST thing we need is an “opportunity” to express our “unique POV” on a diversity brief (that we won’t even get to speak to none the less). Imagine having to chanbel your trauma into a deck to sell in an idea to clients?

I feel bad for the people who got into supply chain management and are burned out. I feel like they get the short end of the stick, and it truly is not a bad career at all, I think maybe some of them just aren't cut for it.

It’s very discouraging to continuously receive these rejection emails. With 9 years of supply chain experience, I am not sure why I would not be able to at least get an interview for entry level roles that require no experience. Not just this one pictured but others as well. I’ve applied to maybe 60 positions since May, both mid level and “entry” and no interviews. I’ve had my resume professionally re-written twice. Not sure where the disconnect is. Anyone else going through this same thing?
