This course combines an unpaid internship and seminar. Throughout the 300-hour work placement period (the internship), students will come together each week for a two-hour seminar.
Internship - The goal of the internship is to help students get real-world experience within the supply chain management industry in Canada.
Seminar - The goal of this seminar is to develop the abilities of students to become supply chain leaders and supply chain management professionals, i.e., to lead groups of people and to manage change. This workshop focuses on the issues in leadership and professionalism, such as developing best practice leadership characteristics, becoming self-aware, creating a vision and a mission statement, and performing the steps toward effective leadership. The Leadership and Professionalism workshop draws from the works of a variety of credible and well-respected "thought leaders" in the areas of leadership, management, and human relations.
