“The CFO-CPO relationship might be the most important relationship that exists or needs to exist within the enterprise.”– John Paterson, Chief Procurement Officer, IBM
We agree with John and that’s one of the reasons why we think our readers in procurement and finance will be very interested in an upcoming webinar that is hosted by Ardent Partners and sponsored by Basware on July 25 at 2 pm ET.
How a Strong CFO-CPO Alliance Can Command Top Performance
Date: Thursday, July 25, 2013
Time: 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM ET
In the battle for corporate profits, efficiency, and performance, the Chief Financial Officer and the Chief Procurement Officer are natural allies, each marked by an increasingly prominent role that demands greater performance. And yet, more often than not, these generals and their battle-tested teams are marching to the beat of a different drummer. Enterprises that allow this CFO-CPO ‘gap’ to exist will find themselves exposed to the demands of an increasingly volatile and global marketplace, while the CFOs and CPOs who combine forces will lead the way to Best-in-Class performance. If you’ve enjoyed our webinars in the past, you won’t want to miss this one.
