The Procurement Conversation
Big Conversation - Procurement Super Skills
This week we're covering 'soft' skills - but perhaps 'Super Skills' is a more appropriate name for how these skills can impact Procurement.
The return on investment in developing these skills is massive on a personal, professional and organisational level.
Rich talks to Barry Holmes who has spent the last 20 years helping Procurement teams to transform the way they work from low value, operational functions, to high value, strategic functions through a focussed investment in soft skills.
They talk through the main skills of communication, influencing, teamwork, problem solving, being data driven, networking, resolving conflict, strategic thinking, responsibility and creativity.
It's a great conversation for those looking to transform their career or their team's delivery.
