UNDERSTANDING BUSINESS EXPECTATIONS
Supply chain management courses have become popular over the years because businesses have understood that it is not anymore limited to large corporations. In the past few years, we have seen many students take up the course because of bright job prospects but to do justice to it, they need to first understand business expectations. The field of supply chain management is uncertain as it is greatly influenced by the weather.
Managers need to be prompt and come up with creative solutions to ensure that the delivery takes place according to the schedule. At Lincoln University of Business and Management, students are taught to handle such complex situations without feeling stressed by developing analytical skills. When students take up the managerial role, they are required to train their subordinates to handle their management procedures to ensure a smooth process.
GOING BEYOND THE COURSE
Supply chain managers are required to go beyond the course teachings as they will be handling international business. We teach our students accepted cultural norms and ways to interact with potential business clients living in foreign countries. It acts as a great instrument in impressing them and boosting business revenue.
For the very same reason, we conduct two case studies in contract and procurement management and project cost and schedule control during the program to give the students a clear idea about the supply chain management and logistics industry. Many of our students are employed in specific jobs like route managers and warehouse organizers, which confirms that the industry is widespread and offers a wide range of job opportunities.
Through our courses on human resource management and strategic management, we prepare our students to engage in continuous planning and assessment of organization goals and objectives. HR management is crucial since various levels and types of individuals are involved in the supply chain process and the students should maintain coordination for a smooth process.
EXCELLENT CAREER OPPORTUNITIES WITH INTERNATIONAL OUTREACH
All students who have graduated from our MBA programs are currently involved in multinational companies all over the world. After graduating from our supply chain management course, the students can work as division demand managers, transportation supervisors, inventory planning managers /auditors, and area logistics managers.
The career opportunities are unlimited as our students have also found store manager, purchase/ procurement manager, dispatch supervisor, and stock control officer jobs and are doing an amazing job.
Lincoln University of Business and Management offers several MBA degree online courses developed specifically for those who want to expand career opportunities overseas.
