Talent remains a challenge for procurement organizations, and that is unlikely to change, even with growing investment in automation. In fact, as the procurement talent pool improves and their skills become stronger and broader, they may actually become higher priority ‘poaching’ targets for internal promotion and reassignment. In this webinar, Eric Simonson, Managing Partner at Everest Group, and Rohitashwa Aggarwal, Practice Director at Everest Group will share actionable insights on talent management for shared services.

“With the supply chain typically the biggest source of environmental and social impact for the modern business, procurement is seen as a function that can have perhaps the most significant and lasting effect on corporate sustainability, and long-term value creation.” That point, taken from the event description, is hard to argue with. Join Samuel Wrest, Senior Analyst at Procurement Leaders, Pierre-Francois, Co-Founder & CEO at EcoVadis, Thomas Udesen, CPO of Bayer, and Bertrand Conquéret, President Global Supply Chain & CPO at Henkel for this panel-format webinar.
