Sourcing has always been a bit of a black box to me, and so to learn more I invited Etosha Thurman to come on the podcast to get me up-to-speed. Etosha is the Chief Marketing & Solutions Officer, for Intelligent Spend and Business Network at SAP.

We had a fascinating conversation discussing the growing strategic importance of sourcing, the shift away from single sourcing, and how sourcing can be a force for good. I learned loads. I hope you do too.
If you have any comments/suggestions or questions for the podcast - feel free to leave me a voice message over on my SpeakPipe page or just send it to me as a direct message on Twitter/LinkedIn. Audio messages will get played (unless you specifically ask me not to).

If you want to learn more about supply chain semiconductor shortages, don't forget to check out SAP's recently published Point of View paper on the topic, as well as my podcast with the author of the paper Jeff Howell.
And don't forget to also check out the 2021 MPI research on Industry 4.0 to find out how to increase productivity, revenues, and profitability for your operations. This global study examines the extent to which manufacturers deploy Industry 4.0 in their business and the benefits it brings.
