Interview with Philip Ideson founder of the Art of Procurement
Philip Ideson, 20-year procurement veteran and founder of the Art of Procurement, polled CPOs in September 2020 and learned that even during the Covid pandemic 24% of CPOs are focused on enabling organizational growth. Compare that to 35% who are tasked with cost savings and there are opportunities to grow as professionals to actually support stakeholder business objectives. In this podcast, Phil talks with Jeanette Nyden about the role of procurement during the Covid pandemic to enable growth, how procurement is embracing diversity and the best negotiation mindset for the current times.
