Futureproofing Talent Sourcing
As the challenge to source talent becomes more acute, companies are trying to uncover new ways to attract and retain procurement stars. While the tried and tested methods of selection, development and promotion still work; today, world-class organisations are taking a more innovative approach to engaging talent – by aligning their sourcing activities to their diversity leadership strategy.
Risk management and procurement – two areas that have recently been the focus of numerous studies, discussions and scientific journals and articles.
It sometimes seems that everything that needs to be said about these topics has in fact been said – just not by everyone. Yet so often, these disciplines are regarded as discrete entities, which in turn leads to the interface between procurement and risk management becoming a blind spot. And this is precisely where this study comes in.
