BOSTON, July 01, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The accelerating speed and complexity of business has placed the procurement function and its leader, the Chief Procurement Officer (“CPO”), in the crucible of business operations, relationships, and results. Procurement departments, their operations, culture, and systems, the way in which they transform knowledge into strategies and those strategies into performance, must all keep pace. To help CPOs better understand what they can do improve their relevance, engagement, and results, Ardent Partners is pleased to announce its inaugural executive symposium, “CPO Rising 2015,” which will bring the best and brightest in procurement to Boston this October 20 and 21.
