Recenzje

"The writing style makes it very easy to read and digest. I particularly liked the practical advice to support procurement professionals at all levels cover the breadth of topics that is now required when developing a strategy or new supplier relationship. This practical approach also suits people looking to develop themselves further in procurement." Piers Grumett, Operations Director, Megger
