Dear DUSA Members and Friends,
We are delighted to invite you to attend the Brown Bag "Lunch and Learn Talk" organized by DUSA Annual Partner: IBSS, Xi'an Jiaotong - Liverpool University.
Event Introduction
Topic: Purchasing and Supply Management: From Back Office to Boardroom
Over the past decades, purchasing has evolved from being a back office activity to becoming a board room topic. Purchasing is no longer simply the clerical task of issuing purchase orders, but increasingly about topics such as quality management, innovation, sustainability, and risk management. The driving forces behind this trend are several, among them, increased levels of outsourcing, higher degree of process automation, and globalization. We say that purchasing has become supply management. As a result of this, a totally new skillset is required among purchasing professionals where leadership will play an increasingly important role. This webinar presents current trends and the competencies that are essential for becoming a successful supply management professional in the future.
