Human Capital Development
Most dynamic Procurement executives accept that Human Capital Development is a vital component of the Procurement value chain. Consequently, aligning the ongoing effectiveness of all team member outputs with the goals of both business unit and parent organisation, is a crucial management responsibility of any Procurement business unit leader.
Paradoxically, most Procurement Managers have little experience of focused human capital development, and likewise, most Human Resources professionals have little understanding of Procurement.
