The Point
Buyers Meeting Point attends many sales AND procurement webinars/webcasts. One of the interesting things about consistently reading content from quality sources is that you start to notice trends. It is amazing how often the same topics arise at the same time in different places. We use this blog as a way to help you stay on top of the major themes in procurement and supply chain management.
Webinar Notes: “Seven Trends That Will Impact Supply Management In 2012”
This week’s featured event was sponsored by TradingPartners with key speaker Andrew Bartolini, the Chief Research Officer at Ardent Partners and Editor of the blog CPO Rising.
Beyond the high quality of the presentation itself, I appreciated the global perspective on procurement's activities and opportunities for responsibility and value creation. This was the kind of event that I think would open a lot of C-level eyes to the value of the function that they already have in house. You can request a copy of the slides or listen to the presentation on TradingPartners' site.
