Would like to have a mentor in the Logistics | Program Management | Operations that can mentor me during the transition process?

Veteran

Alexander Garcia Alexandria, VA

I would like a mentor that can help me navigate the civilian sector where I can transfer my over 20 years of military experience in Logistics and Program Management to start a new career.

I am seeking a new career, not just a job. I want to be part of an organization where I believe in their vision but also know that I, too, can benefit the organization.

I do not want to watch the clock in a new job, but to know that I can make a difference in their organization.

You did not mention your education. Logistics is a good area in which to make a career. I would suggest getting into Procurement or Contracts Administration and working your way up to a management position.

If you have "what it takes", think about Law School. That will open corporate executive level doors that you do not know exist. I went to Law School nights, when I had a demanding management full time day job, a demanding wife, 3 small kids etc,. so it is no excuse that you have a family, need to work days, etc etc. etc. But it is not easy nor inexpensive. Contact me if you have any interest.

Francis, there is unlimited opportunity in this field, exposure to all aspects such as transportation, warehousing, logistics, purchasing and Sourcing will be the foundation of that experience. They are all tied together to make up the supply chain.
