We all know that relationships are at the heart of a successful procurement function — with business stakeholders, cross-functional partners, and especially CFOs.
In this session, we get behind the scenes with David Mehok, a seasoned public-company CFO (Q2, Epicor and Dell) to explore how finance leaders view procurement, what earns their support, and how strong alignment can unlock greater impact.
We explored:
- What drives a CFO to invest more in procurement (ROI, bottom-line impact)
- Balancing cost discipline with enablement and innovation
- Skills and backgrounds CFOs value when hiring procurement talent
- Lessons from past implementations, vendor evaluations, and ERP/PO tools
