Category management is as fundamental part of procurement as strategic sourcing, supplier management, and negotiation. At the same time, there is a chasm between optimism about the potential of category management and examples of where it has been carried out successfully.  In this episode of the #LoveProcurement podcast, Kelly Barner is joined by Sabrina Hueren. Sabrina is a manager and strategy consultant for Sourcing Champions, a boutique procurement consulting firm based in Amsterdam. Not only does Sabrina love procurement, but she also has a passion for category management! In this episode, Sabrina speaks about why category management is more relevant for procurement today than ever before: The 'soft' skills that are required to successfully build and execute against a category strategy, whether procurement is made up of generalists or category experts How to make sure your category strategy delivers results rather than gathering dust on a shelf or in a drawer Why category management is one of the best ways for procurement to demonstrate their potential for overall business impact far beyond savings Links: Sabrina Hueren on LinkedIn
