755: Mastermind LIVE 2024 Debrief with Philip Ideson and Kelly Barner

"Every procurement journey is unique, and now we have the tools and technologies that allow us to be a lot more flexible in how we build procurement operating models so that we can truly adapt to exactly what the business needs." – Philip Ideson, Founder and Managing Director, Art of Procurement

In the hustle and bustle of end-of-year reporting, wrap ups, and planning for the year to come, it's important for procurement to take a pause – even a very brief one – and think about how they should be reacting to some of the 'bigger picture' forces impacting the function and the business in general.

In this episode, Philip Ideson and Kelly Barner take a look back at the recent Mastermind LIVE 2024, one of AOP's most popular digital events of the year, where we considered some of the most important, even challenging, issues facing procurement today. They debrief each of the 6 sessions and tease out the most important insights, surprising and unexpected moments, and tactical call outs that procurement should keep in mind as they plan for 2025 and beyond.

Kelly and Philip add their own perspectives to the session topics, including:

How procurement is positioning themselves for success in 2025 and how procurement operating models should evolve to clear the way for success
What kinds of changes – both good and bad – we can expect to procurement roles in the coming months or years, and which jobs are least likely to survive AI
How procurement can build a tech roadmap that maximizes stakeholder adoption and user satisfaction
And much much more!
