What an unbelievably busy event schedule this week! This week looks like the last webinar stampede before the summer months arrive. There are 12 webinars and 3 conferences in three days… so if you don’t see what you’re looking for in my recommendations, visit the full calendar!
If you are planning your procurement event schedule beyond this week, I recommend ‘Taking Control of Your Supplier Data’ from Procurement Leaders and Ivalua on July 11th.
And now for this week’s recommendations…
AOP Event - Strengthening Your Corporate Culture to Survive Challenging Economic Times (Art of Procurement & Procure Analytics)
June 20, 11am ET
Procurement cannot deny the pressure that a tight or uncertain economy puts on their work. It is important, however, that we don’t allow that pressure to ruin the goodwill that they have built up with stakeholders. In this event, we will be joined by Mu Wagh, Chief Operating Officer at Procure Analytics, and Matt Reddington, their Vice President of Operations. They will answer live audience questions and share their point of view on balancing the drive for savings with the need for healthy business relationships.
Driving Agile Planning in an Era of Constant Changes - Presented by Workday and Accenture (Workday)
June 21, 10am ET
It is common to talk about continuous improvement – continuous planning, not so much. And yet, given today’s uncertainty, it makes complete sense. Putting a plan in place is just the beginning. Businesses need to adjust, review, and revise the plan on a regular basis. In this webinar, Shetul Shah, Sr Product Marketing Manager at Workday, and Bharath Srinivas, Global CTO at the Accenture Workday Business Group, will share real life examples where companies implemented continuous planning to support rapid growth.
Effectively utilise artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities to enhance procurement operations (Procurement Leaders & Evisort)
June 22, 11am ET
Everyone is scrambling to find an effective use case for AI. In this event, Michaela Dempsey, Chief Marketing Officer of Evisort, and Jeff Marple, Director of Digital Transformation Strategy at KP Labs, will make the case that contracts provide that use case. Join them to hear stories about implementation and ROI as well as to ask your own questions of the panel.
