336: Rewind - How Google's Sourcing Team Became a Trusted Business Partner w/ Tim Jones

For the rest of August, I'm taking a roadtrip across the United States, and so because I'm out of the recording studio, I'm going to dip into the archive all the way back to 2016 to share some of my favorite episodes from that year with you that are still just as relevant as today - and if you found the podcast after 2016, there's a good chance that you haven't yet heard these conversations.

Today's I rewind to a conversation that I had with Tim Jones, Head of Sourcing at Google.

Our conversation documents Google's journey to become a trusted advisor. Google's approach includes tactics around stakeholder engagement that I often recommend to procurement teams who are on their own journey from tactical to strategic, regardless of the size of your company.
