The best managers act as leaders, not bosses. They know what it takes to actually do their team's jobs and they're invested in nurturing the growth of their people.

Yes, anyone can be your boss that you report to. But, it takes a really good person to be a leader.

I think the ability to motivate and inspire workers to perform the best they of their ability. Someone who supports their staff and shows empathy for their team. Someone who can communicate effectively and respectfully and sets a good example for those they supervise.

Yes, they are out there. They are just rare commodities.

Controversial question - what are some roles/functions to avoid at Google for ex-management consultants, in terms of potential under-utilization of skills and limited career progression? Common exit opps tend to be in StratOps, PMM, PgM/Solutions Consultant, roles in Sales; would anyone not recommend any of these roles?

Looking to get advice on two different job offers. I am only concerned about long term career prospects in choosing one or the other. Offer 1: warehouse manager for a beverage company. Offer 2: material distribution manager for an industrial equipment manufacturer. Again, only want input on future opportunities that each might provide. Thanks!

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?
