At Synergy, we recognize that many logistics practitioners find themselves working within this exciting and diverse side of business, without actually selecting ‘logistics’ as their career goal from leaving school. This often means that logistics personnel or managers have no ‘formal’ qualifications in logistics - that being the case, they have found a natural working affinity within this challenging environment. Find out more about our mentoring service today - email us re Mentoring!
Mentoring is an excellent way of ensuring that up and coming supply chain managers and logisticians can tap into an established knowledge base and develop the right skills with a mentor / guide that will confidently direct and assist them.
The mentoring service enables the mentee a great opportunity to talk through the issues they may be facing in their work life and to explore the education, professional development options available to them in a supportive, non-judgmental environment. Listening to the challenges being faced by the mentees and determine the right way for them to overcome obstacles in their day-to-day roles and we will often suggest alternate approaches and solutions if required. Mentoring advice is not limited to career development.
The Mentor should be viewed as a trusted professional friend, who can provide discrete counsel or can be a teacher, which ever approach suits the individual.
Some professions have "mentoring programs" in which newcomers are paired with more experienced people, who advise them and serve as examples as they advance, the Logistics Association of Australia / APICS offer such a service.

At Synergy we design and run our own training and education courses. Our current Training and Education Program is available with the course dates on the dedicated Courses page of this site.
We have identified that there is a gap in the market place for Managers and their staff to undertake short, but meaningful and focussed logistics training programs. Courses that deliver an easy to use logistics 'toolset' that the participants can immediately apply in their work. Easy to grasp theory with practical application, taught in a meaningful context.
We take a slightly different approach, we teach logistics in context of our clients and their businesses - as such you will find we like to get to know a little bit about you, your role and your business challenges before you undertake our courses. You will often be asked to prepare your own Case Study that can be worked through during the training, confidentiality permitting. This is to ensure you get the maximum 'bang for your buck' - we are happy to guarantee you will be able to save much more than the cost of the course as a result of our training. Remember logistics savings add straight on to the 'bottom line' and should be ongoing.
It is possible for us to run our courses on a dedicated basis for your personnel. We are happy to customise the content to better suit your business if required. The 'Synergies' gained when you have teams of logistics personnel trained together can be truely amazing and transformational - talk to us today - contact Synergy re Corporate Training.
