Supply Chain Talks - Supply Chain Management (SCM) discussions

Why is it a “Passion” project?

Interest in SCM

Supply Chain Management plays a crucial role in the success of businesses across Industries. It covers a wide spread of domains like processes, activities, and resources that enable the production and distribution of goods and services. Although SCM is present everywhere and has been in action from time immemorial, there is no single set of Universally binding principles that governs the area unlike some of the other subject matters. This is due to multiple factors such as varying operations and challenges across businesses and geos, constant changes and advancements in tech, globalization, and customer expectations, among others. It is for these exact reasons (indispensability, omnipresence, dynamism, and constant evolution), that I find SCM very fascinating.

Love for writing

Before entering the world of SCM, I worked on other blogging projects in 2007 and 2008. Writing has many social, and cognitive, and psychological benefits, like improving intellectual vitality, creativity, and thinking abilities. But what I loved the most about it is that it helped me discover myself better as a person. As Gustave Flaubert said, ‘The art of writing is the art of discovering what you believe’. I developed an understanding that writing something in a public forum means making a statement that is open for everyone to see and judge you. So it is important to then be true to your writing. This aspect of writing forces me to reflect on myself before publishing. This self-reflection is like a meditation in a way and is a beautiful experience.

This project in that sense allows me to work on two things that I hold dear, so I consider this a passion project.
