This week, our Unilever Future Leaders Program North America Class of 2024 begin their careers with us and start their orientation week! This coincides with our impressive intern class hitting their midpoint. Summer is flying by 😎 This time of fresh starts has me reflecting on some advice that I give our program associates on their first day. Whether you’re midway through an internship, joining a development or rotational program, or starting your first job, I hope these tips can help make your transition from school to career a bit easier.  ️ ⭐ Spend lots of time listening, then take what you’ve heard and ask questions. Listening allows you to understand the leadership & communication styles of your colleagues. Asking questions shows you’re an active listener and you are invested in making thoughtful contributions. ️ ⭐ Turn your observations & questions into action. What can you do in your role within 30, 60, or 90 days with what you’ve learned that will make a real impact?  ️ ⭐ Build a brag sheet. You are your own number one champion. Nobody except for you will ever know the full scope of your accomplishments. Keeping a personal record of them will allow you to demonstrate to your manager, your mentors, and yourself the areas of strength and opportunity you possess. It will also make completing your year-end self-evaluation much easier.  ️ ⭐ Network with everyone, and I mean everyone. Some of the strongest connections you can build are with people you may not work with directly.  ️ ⭐ Remember you’re where you are for a reason. You likely beat out hundreds, if not thousands of applicants for your spot in the organization. Be proud -- you deserve to be! Did I miss any good advice for new grads or interns?

I got invited to SPE Young Professionals Symposium by Israel Emmanuel at Shell Residential Area Port Harcourt. A lovely event hosted by the industry's trailblazers and visionaries, dedicated to celebrating the power of youth and innovation. We often talk about providing opportunities for our youth, but let's delve deeper. It's about more than just offering internships or entry-level positions. It's about fostering an environment where innovation thrives, where creativity knows no bounds and where every idea, no matter how unconventional is given a chance to flourish. By investing in our young talents, we're not just investing in the future of our industries; we're investing in the future of society itself. We're sowing the seeds for a world where barriers aren’t shattered and where success is measured not by the obstacles one overcomes, but by the heights one ascends. So, I believe the higher up’s can act, mentor, inspire and create pathways for the next generation to rise. For in doing so, they are not only securing the prosperity of our industries but also paving ways for a future where the impossible becomes possible, and dreams are turned into reality.

As the FMCG sector evolves, attracting top graduate talent is crucial for sustained innovation and growth. Here's my take on what we need to do: Firstly, we must showcase the dynamism of the FMCG industry. It's not just about sales and marketing; it's a realm of endless possibilities, from sustainability projects to cutting-edge supply chain tech. We need to communicate the diverse career paths available within our industry. Secondly, we should foster partnerships with universities. By offering internships, co-op programs, and case competitions, we can engage students early and give them a taste of the fast-paced environment that FMCG offers. Real-world experience not only enhances their learning but also piques their interest in our industry. Lastly, we must commit to innovation, not just in our products, but in our approach to work. Graduates today seek flexibility, work-life balance, and a culture that values creativity. By embracing these desires and promoting a progressive workplace, we can attract the bright minds ready to drive our industry forward. Remember, it's about connecting with graduates on their terms and showing them the impact they can make in FMCG. Let's start the conversation and ignite the passion for our industry in the leaders of tomorrow. #FMCGCareers #GraduateTalent #InnovationInIndustry

COVID-19 had incredible impacts on the supply chain that are still making waves in today’s society. But what about the students entering the industry at the time? Compared to their peers who struggled with internships that were canceled or shifted to remote, supply chain interns jumped in full force to face challenges never seen before in the industry. They had to problem-solve quickly with limited resources andworkforce constraints, all while navigating shifts in their personal lives and habits. In this episode, we’re joined by two of those next-gen supply chain leaders, Sam Nunez , Initiatives Operations Leader for Bounty at Procter & Gamble and Claire Konz , Supply Chain Consultant at Miebach. We break down their unique experiences entering the field, the hard and soft skills necessary to learn for success today, the importance of continuous development and learning and more. Tune in below 🎧

Young professionals are the future of supply chain. Growing young talent and giving us the resources to learn and develop into experts in our fields is critical to shaping the talent pipeline. Join Sam Nunez and I as we discuss our time at Purdue University School of Industrial Engineering, entering the workforce while navigating the pandemic, and how the supply chain career outlook has changed even in our short time in the workforce! Thanks so much to Ellen Wood for taking this idea and running with it!
