Any coaches from logistics/transportation background or specialize in supply chain?

Question

I'm currently seeking long-term career advice in the logistics and transportation industry.

Not sure whether there are any coaches here from a logistics/ transportation industry background? If not, a supply chain focus would also be good. Please let me know if you have this background.

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Hi there,

I am a former McKinsey consultant and was recently in charge of Maersk's logistics strategy for South America as part of the company's leadership team. I have since transitioned out of the company - see details in my profile in the link below.

Feel free to shoot me a message with your specific needs.

Best,
Moritz

Hi there,

While I don't have direct experience in supply chain/logistics, I do have a number of cases on these topic and have successfully prepped candidates for this. Feel free to shoot me a message!

For Practice Cases Try The Following

1) Search on Operations here (already done): https://www.preplounge.com/en/management-consulting-cases?language=en&topic[]=8&sort=real-case-desc&page=1&perPage=20

2) Google and casebooks are your friend. For example (https://managementconsulted.com/case-interview/case-interview-examples-master-list/)...go to Accenture, Amex, AT Kearney, Deloitte, and LEK sections which specifically call out operations.

3) Send me a message and I can provide you with a few good ones and/or case you in them! Some examples include:

X retailer currently is seeing delivery delays due to lack or storage containers and skyrocketing container costs - how would you go about resolving this situation?
Vaccine maker x is seeing shortages in supplies for manufacturing - how can we resolve these shortages?
X distrubiton center would like to purchase an inventory management system - how would you evauate this decision?
