Ep 09 Inside Procurement: 2019 Procurement Predictions

Inside Procurement is The Smart Cube’s forum for looking at the ideas, trends and developments that are influencing the leaders and functions we work with today.

Our second podcast of 2019 looks at the key trends and challenges we expect to influence procurement over the next 12 months. But instead of just telling you what we think, we decided to bring you a few alternate viewpoints as well.

In this episode we hear from Raj Nath, Head of Procurement at New Avon and Elisabeth Schlag-Lawrence, former Global Head of Centre of Excellence – Category Management at Corning Incorporated, who both offer their take on the year ahead.

So listen above or download a copy from any of the major podcast apps or via Spotify.
