A couple of weeks back, I had a fantastic opportunity to train Advanced Supply Chain topics for two days to the executive leadership group of Engro Corp in their Leadership Development Program

The Topics I have covered were:

👨🏻‍🏫 Creating a Digital Supply Chain
👨🏻‍🏫 Sales and Operations Planning 
👨🏻‍🏫 Technology Implementating In Supply Chain
👨🏻‍🏫 How to Create a Supply Chain Strategic Plan
👨🏻‍🏫 A hands-on Workshop to Create a Supply Chain Strategic Plan for Engro utilising the leadership from the above four topics. 

This was a fantastic experience for two reasons:

1) The leadership group left the training intervention with something practical that they can use and apply in their jobs

2) The discussions were very interactive. I learned about a fantastic initiative where the Engro Team has developed and deployed an app to their 1400 distributors, in which they can order, track, and pay for their orders. The adoption rate is 97%, and the engagement rate is 93%. This is an extraordinary feat, given that the literacy rate in Pakistan is only 59.13%! This project has a more positive social impact than just digitalising B2B commerce.

Lastly, a special mention to the winners of the workshop competition “Unstoppable.” This group, comprised of Zoya Khan  Hasnain Raza, Amjad Hussain, Rubina Asad, and Kashan Aslam, presented a sleek and well-researched Supply Chain Strategic Plan with only a few hours of work. Well done 👍🏼.

As a reward, they have won SCMDOJO  Pro membership!!

Lastly special thanks to KSBL Executive Education , Muhammad Sibtain Mujahid and Rehan Ahmed Siddiqui  for making this happen. Fantastic Busiess school for Executive Education.
