DAY 2: Evolving the Roles and Priorities of Supply Chain + Procurement

10:55 AM Panel: Advancing Procurement + Supply Chain + Logistics and Ops Relationships – Working Together for a Seamless Supply Chain

In the intricate dance of organizational dynamics, working across departments and functions is fundamental, yet often complex and sometimes fraught. This panel invites you to explore the effective communication and planning with a diverse array of stakeholders, simplifying complications to secure their support for innovative initiatives, and rejuvenating strained relationships when dynamics become adversarial. Join our panelists to discover strategies for comprehending the underlying 'why' behind each function to position procurement as a value-enhancer rather than an obstacle. Uncover the secrets of:

  • Effective communication and strategies to cut down on busy-work and have more strategic conversations
  • Finding alignment with corporate and commercial goals
  • Trust-based approaches for building rapport, even in challenging times, and adapting your approach to diverse stakeholder groups
