Power to the Procurement People ✌🏽🤟🏽✊🏽 on Clubhouse

Description

All things next generation procurement through the lens of salespeople (who just so happen to be black, female, millennial, adidas hyper-enthusiasts, and/or otherwise.).

Club content aims to cultivate the relationship between buyers and sellers, inspire multidirectional best practice sharing, and explore the role emerging technology can play to promote and/or erode #diversity, #equity, #inclusion, and #belonging in the future of work.

To ground those new to procurement, here’s how our simple brains made sense of such a complex and nuanced space:

#purchasing is the #act of buying stuff.
#procurement is the #art of buying stuff.
#contractmanagement is the #finesse required to ensure you get EXACTLY what you bought.
#supplychain is biographical... it’s the life story of stuff... from inception (#onceuponatime) to the moment a consumer gets to see, hear, smell, taste, or touch said stuff (#happilyeverafter).

Had someone broke it down to us like this, we’d have found our way to the neighborhood cookout ten years ago. Would’ve brought all our friends too.

✌🏽🤟🏽✊🏽
