Description

Most businesses around the world are being impacted by inflation today. As they have navigated turbulence over the last two years, the decades-old model of how goods are made, sourced, and delivered has been severely disrupted. With that backdrop reactive fire-fighting has become part of the norm for procurement functions and this is set to continue. But there is a way to get ahead of turbulence and develop a resilient way of working.
Join the conversation with Craig Reed, former Vice President & Chief Procurement Officer at Corteva Agriscience, Marta Mussacaleca and Roman Belotserkovskiy, Partners in McKinsey’s Operations Practice; Ezra Greenberg, global leader in McKinsey’s work on macro scenarios and trends; and host Daphne Luchtenberg, McKinsey’s Operations Practice Director of Communications.See www.mckinsey.com/privacy-policy for privacy information
