About the programme

Course Overview

Inventory tied up in procurement leadership skills is capital the organisation cannot use elsewhere. Savings claimed on the procurement and supply operations discipline at signature are frequently lost during execution. Practitioner evidence points the same way: this part of procurement and supply operations improves fastest where responsibility for it is named and owned. Participants take away a working set of documents supporting procurement leadership skills, ready to be adapted internally. Ambition around the wider procurement and supply operations agenda outruns capacity unless the sequencing is deliberate. The programme works equally well for those formalising the procurement and supply operations capability for the first time and those improving an existing approach. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of procurement leadership skills rather than to abstract argument. The course sets out a working method for the procurement and supply operations discipline that participants can apply the week they return. Participants finish with a short, specific brief on this part of procurement and supply operations ready to put in front of a decision maker.
