With our Guest, Nicola Perrozzi from the The LEGO Group, we explore in this podcast the concept of value creation across an organization or enterprise, and the role Procurement play in that. Procurement typically are known and held responsible for cost, but the skillset and profession can play a much larger role in generating value not just managing cost. Join us on ‘Procurement Matters’ to hear our thoughts and experiences as to how to place Procurement at the centre of value creation.
