How to incentivise your suppliers to reduce their CO2 footprint
Free webinar with TWS Partners & carbmee
The fight against climate change is probably the biggest global challenge of the 21st century - inevitably it will also affect the way Procurement organisations think and act. CO2 has already become a currency on its own - there are almost no major businesses that don't yet have targets to reduce emissions throughout their supply chain. But what are the first steps in implementing these strategies? How do you even measure your suppliers' carbon footprint? What are best practices for achieving savings and improving quality, while also reducing the carbon footprint of your supply chain? Managing all of these factors while minimising trade-offs can be a complicated challenge. Join carbmee and TWS Partners' decarbonisation webinar to learn more about how to:- measure your suppliers' carbon footprint
- manage the trade-off between costs and carbon reduction
- incentivise your suppliers to reduce their carbon footprint

HOW TO THINK ABOUT THINKING: SURPRISES AND APPLICATIONS OF HUMAN DECISION MAKING
WAS HELD ON: June 24, 2021 3:00 pm CET
WAS HELD ON: June 24, 2021 3:00 pm CET
Behavioural scientists estimate that we make about 35,000 conscious decisions every day. As we do not have the time to evaluate each single decision at length, our brains have developed cognitive shortcuts so we can make those decisions more efficiently. While this saves us loads of time and effort, it is unfortunately very prone to error. Often we make sub-optimal choices without even realising it.
In this webinar, we will explain:
• How our brain processes information and how these shortcuts are sometimes influenced by our environment
• How some of the most common cognitive biases prevent us from making the optimal decision
• How awareness of the limitations of human decision making can help you improve business performance

WAS HELD ON: June 2, 2021 3:00 pm CET
WAS HELD ON: June 2, 2021 3:00 pm CET
As Procurement plays a vital role in an organisation's success, many organisations are trying to understand how their Procurement teams fare against Procurement organisations of their competition.
This creates a need to assess what activities are to be best taken to outperform competition. As budgets are typically not infinite, it becomes important to understand what improvements to Procurement's maturity bring the biggest competitive benefits and have the highest ROI.
In our webinar, we will provide insights into the set-up, execution and evaluation of comprehensive assessments that could help take your Proucrement teams to the desired maturity levels.

WAS HELD ON: May 11, 2021 3:00 pm CET
WAS HELD ON: May 11, 2021 3:00 pm CET
These days, almost every procurement organisation is struggling to keep up with the rising complexity and dynamics of global supply chains that stem from a rise in both innovation and disruption.
While software tools are already widely used in transactional work to keep up, decision makers are still widely underutilising digital solutions when it comes to setting and implementing commodity strategies.
In our webinar, we will explain why the traditional way of commodity strategy setting is an ill fit for modern Procurement and how digital tools can empower decision makers to bring strategy setting into the 21st century.
