In Person
As a Senior Strategic Sourcing Manager, I have extensive experience in helping organizations streamline their operations and improve their efficiency. The goal of the project would be to identify areas where your organization can improve its processes and implement changes that will have a positive impact on your operations. This could include reducing waste, improving communication, or increasing productivity. As this would be a pro bono project, there would be no cost to your organization for my services. I believe that this project has the potential to provide significant benefits to your organization and I would be honored to have the opportunity to work with you on this initiative.
