Our Recommended Procurement Webinars for November 14 – 18: Future Prepping
There are 14 webinars taking place this week – plus ProcureCon Marketing in California Monday through Wednesday. Of course, that is probably due to the fact that with Thanksgiving in the U.S. on November 24th there is only one lone event in the calendar that week.

November 17th, 12n ET
If you ensure that your team still exists in the future, and you give some thought to what that future might look like (are you getting the progression here?), you should also give some thought to your future automation ‘colleagues’. RPA – a technology-based alternative to outsourcing – is bound to be part of your future.
