Description
What is the aim of this course?This course will help you drastically improve your knowledge and skills in optimizing any company's supply chain through a series of practical cases. It is designed for people who want to become management consultants, business analysts or have to run and optimize supply chai on daily basis. In the course you will learn 3 things: How to understand supply chain activities How to optimize the supply chain to get more things done, cheaper at higher quality with fewer resources Where to look for savings and improvements, how to calculate potential savings in Excel and implement them This course is based on my 15 years of experience as a consultant in top consulting firms and as a Board Member responsible for strategy, performance improvement, and turn-arounds in the biggest firms from Retail, FMCG, SMG, B2B, and services sectors that I worked for. I have carried or supervised over 90 different performance improvement projects in different industries that generated in total 2 billion of additional EBITDA. Based on what you will find in this course, I have trained in person over 100 consultants, business analysts, and managers who now are Partners in PE and VC funds, Investment Directors and Business Analysts in PE and VC, Operational Directors, COO, CRO, CEO, Directors in Consulting Companies, Board Members, etc. On top of that my courses on Udemy were already taken by more than 110 000 students including people working in EY, Walmart, Booz Allen Hamilton, Adidas, Naspers, Alvarez & Marsal, PwC, Dell, Walgreens, Orange, and many others.I teach through case studies, so you will have a lot of lectures showing examples of analyses, tools that we use. To every lecture, you will find attached (in additional resources) the Excels as well as additional presentations, materials shown in the lectures so as a part of this course you will also get a library of ready-made analyses that can, with certain modification, be applied by you or your team in your work. Why have I decided to create this course? Most consultants and business analysts are terrible at organizing operational issues. They treat the operations, especially the supply chain, as a black box and try to avoid it at any cost. Technical things overwhelm them and they shy away from them. This approach is not the right one as you find elements of the supply chain in every business. To make matters worse supply chain efficiency and performance have a huge impact on the ability of any business to compete and grow. Everywhere you have some supply chain that you can optimize by using techniques that I will show in this course. Supply chains influence heavily other areas especially sales and marketing as well as production. Therefore, it is a good idea to have at least a general knowledge of the supply chain. The funny thing is that you do not even have to be technical at all to be good at the supply chain. I have not finished any technical school and I am pretty good at finding significant improvements in the supply chain. To sum it up, I believe that if you want to build or to find improvements in any business you should master techniques related to optimizing the supply chain. That is why I highly recommend this course not only to consultants or business analysts that have to advise their customers but also to owners, founders of businesses as well as supply chain managers, and directors. In what way will you benefit from this course? The course is a practical, step-by-step guide loaded with tones of analyses, tricks, hints that will significantly improve the speed with which you find and analyze the supply chain. There is little theory – mainly examples, a lot of tips from my own experience, and other notable examples worth mentioning. We intend that thanks to the course you will know: How to understand supply chain How to optimize it Where to look for savings and improvements How to calculate the impact of proposed changes in Excel How to find the strategic fit when it comes to the supply chain You can also ask me any question either through the discussion field or by messaging me directly.
