402: [Bonus] Introducing The Sourcing Hero - Learning to Recognize Heroes w/ Dr. Dred Scott

We recently partnered with UNA to bring their The Sourcing Hero podcast into the Art of Procurement stable.

The Sourcing Hero is a weekly 20-30 minute podcast that captures the stories of people who are rising up and beating the odds to create exceptional value within procurement, and is hosted by Art of Procurement General Manager, Kelly Barner.

Today marks the launch of Season 2 of the podcast, and the first of our collaboration with UNA, and we're going to run the episode in full in the AOP feed.

Learning to Recognize Heroes feat. Dr. Dred Scott and Anthony Clervi

Over the last year, most of us have expanded our concept of what it means to be a hero. From teachers to truck drivers, and grocery store workers to hospital staff, we have plenty of community members to look up to. We've also learned that anyone, anywhere, in any role has the opportunity to be a hero to the people around them every day - whether it is in their job description or not.

In this very special episode of The Sourcing Hero podcast, Host Kelly Barner welcomes Dr. Dred Scott, President of the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Kansas City, and Anthony Clervi, Principal at Una, to talk about the importance of heroism in all its forms. The Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Kansas City has been helping at-risk youth for over 100 years. While much has changed during that time, heroes have always been present - sometimes in the form of the adults working at the club, and other times in the children themselves.
