Recommended Webinars July 27-31: Autonomous Procurement, Leadership Time, Managing Risk and Resiliency

As we close out the end of July, webinars are just starting to post for August. If you look at all of this week’s webinars, there is a clear note of defiant optimism with the focus returning to supply resiliency, leadership, and automation over necessary but fatigued coverage of the pandemic. Next week also marks the release of the July ISM-New York Report on Business, so we’ll get another look at how the professional services economy is recovering from the various shutdowns.

If you are planning your webinar schedule beyond this week, I recommend “Digitizing your supply chain” on August 18th featuring Todd Stohlmeyer, Vice President of Strategic Sourcing & Procurement at Cargill, Dr. Marcell Vollmer, Chief Innovation Officer at Celonis, and Kevin Frechette, CEO and Co-Founder at Fairmarkit.

BTW: If you haven’t already, sign up for our mailing list to be sure you get my weekly recommendations in your inbox each Monday.
