PROCUREMENT EXECUTIVE ROUNDTABLE:

Are you perplexed by what you keep hearing about this topic?  Does it worry you that it feels like everyone else is miles ahead of you and you haven’t even started yet?  Don’t worry, most of your colleagues aren’t there yet either – help is here.  

Please join us for a great day of learning, networking and sharing of Next Practice with a vibrant and growing group of your peers. 

We will take a dip into this exciting and scary topic.  Here are some of the things you will walk away with a better understanding of

  • Ensuring technology investments in the function are embraced and supported by corporate leadership
  • Concept of Stakeholder Value Drivers and their critical role in the Business Case and how they dramatically increase your ROI
  • The absolutely Number 1 Critical Success Factor by far, no questions asked – it’s the vowels and not the consonants
  • How and where to get started and develop a strategy
  • How to make sense of :
    • Big Data
    • Cloud/IoT
    • Blockchain, RPA & AI 
    • Collaboration – yup, collaboration
    • Impact on CSR
  • Building the competencies you need to succeed – and it’s not developing the best RFP
  • Supplier Relationship Management Optimization
  • Change Management, Change Management, Change Management

 

Learn from your colleagues who will be part of a panel discussion on what they have done, what they have learned, what not to do and how they got where they did.  You will also be able to participate in a benchmarking survey of Best Next Practices.
