Episode Synopsis

Procurement doesn’t build credibility by explaining more, it builds it by solving more. Richard Beaumont and Graham Crawshaw discuss why Procurement can sometimes over-communicate to prove its value, and how that can unintentionally weaken its influence. They explore why stakeholders want outcomes, not processes, and why judgment and clarity will matter even more as AI changes the function.
