Hi Critical Square team,
I am a sailor, a marine engineer working on cargo ships engaged in international voyages. Now I have planned to pursue an MBA so as to reach the decision making level of this supply and logistic industry.
I need your advise on my short and long term goals. I am not sure how credible they sound because it's just what I want to do and not sure if the adcoms will like it or consider it professional.
Background - Ship Operation , a logistic part of the big supply chain.
Please need your initial assessment on my rough outline. I am more concerned about my long term goal ? Does it sounds unprofessional as it won't have a bigger reach (only limited to seafarer community)...
Awaiting your response and suggestion/criticism. Thanks

Hey there,
Thanks for the post! The scope of your LT goals isn't the issue - you have to start somewhere and starting with something you know makes sense. But, that said, we don't particularly get the point of your LT goal nor do we see how the ST goals would help with that. Getting supply chain experience wouldn't set you up to be an entrepreneur per se. Not saying it isn't an important part of your vision's value chain but you'd have folks doing that hopefully. What we DO like, however, is how specific you're being. Just not 100% sold on the goals themselves and how they fit together...

Thanks for reply. Your assessment does points out flaws in my career plan. The long term goal does not appears to be in line with St goals. In that case, if I have long term goal to reach senior management position /vp in a major corporation. Will this goal look in line and credible?
