At the May, 2016 ISM Conference in Indianapolis, I will be joined by a top-flight panel to explore “Taking Procurement from Good to Great: Turbocharged Talent Driving Optimal Performance.”
There are three distinct categories of talent necessary for achieving optimal performance: “procurement employees” are just one of the three categories. If you are a leader that is committed to achieving great things, no matter what constraints you are under, join us for this lively discussion. As moderator, I will be throwing some real hard balls to the panelists; you will want to see how they do.
My distinguished panelists are:
Christine S. Breves, VP and Chief Supply Chain Officer, United States Steel Corporation
Cathy A. Martin, President of Martin Solutions LLC, and former CPO of Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission (WSSC)
David Butler, VP, Global Operations and Supply Chain, Philips Sleep & Respiratory Care
Join us at Session DF, at 3:00pm, on Monday, May 16.
