With more than 25 years experience within the several aspects of the Supply Chain of different industries I never noticed a course with such a focus on the understanding of the underlying principles, combined with a direct applicable usage.

The Executive Master has carefully been chosen, thus my expectations were accordingly high as I was searching for more in-depth knowledge and up-to-date case studies in the field of international Supply Chain. Every module has been an experience of a plunge into its specific subject whereas many topics have been highlighted. Throughout the many case studies, site visits, discussions and teamwork, I have had the opportunity to look back at a successful year which has improved my professional and personal life.

My expectations for that program were to be able to analyze best practices, so that I could contribute to improve the operations management at L';Oréal. I also wanted to take some distance from my function and take time to think ! Visits to companies are both reassuring and exciting because one can discover issues of the same nature as one’s own, analyze and solve them in the light of theoretical and methodological academic contributions, which can become livelier as a consequence.

I found it very enjoyable to run a simulation game of collaboration in the Supply Chain, together with Luc Pollaris of the Carrefour Group. On that occasion I appreciated the interaction with -and within- the group of participants. It was really enriching to discuss with Young professionals about the different aspects of the Supply Chain. We could check that it is possible, when we work together in the chain, to obtain important results in terms of service rate and cost reduction.

I expected this training to deliver some information and theoretical background that would enlarge my scope of understanding of the whole Supply Chain span. In fact, it brought much more: it gave me a much deeper, detailed and wise understanding of the levers I was used to push on daily. Starting with recognizing how and why the different parts of a Supply Chain are linked and, along the modules, trainings, exercises and relevant industrial visits, progressively understand their interactions that make them so interdependent opens many doors for optimization when back at work. Last but not least, the residential aspect of the seminars not only keeps you focused for 3 days but also enriches you through the experience exchanges with your colleagues who mostly come from totally different businesses. And then, you discover how similar to yours some of their issues can be when properly identified and analyzed.

I was concerned initially that I might get exposed to great theories far from my daily work. I was wrong, for two reasons:
1. The triangular links between the theories, the concrete cases and our practice turn out to be totally relevant. I already had an opportunity to apply in my business one of the theories which had been illustrated by a case study
2. Many general managers have the supply chain concept in mind but never had a chance to apply it. This program suggested applications couldn't imagine which go beyond logistics and distribution and are situated upstream, at the organizational level.

In one sentence, I would say it's a unique opportunity to acquire Supply Chain experience by following professional courses, benchmarking on several companies through the different modules, but also by meeting other Supply Chain Master participants representing their own company.
