Last month, the Strategic Sourcing & Procurement Group on LinkedIn hosted our 1st Group conference call. Things got off to a great start with Chris Sawchuk leading a discussion on “key issues” in 2010.

Now, for our February call…

Kate Vitasek, who literally wrote the book on “Vested Outsourcing”, will be leading the discussion. So, come armed with questions, thoughts and experiences on outsourcing, BPO, nearsourcing and other related issues. If you have particular questions or topics you’d like to cover, leave them in the comments below.

One thing … the call is for Group members only. So you must be a member of the Strategic Sourcing & Procurement group on LinkedIn to get the dial in number (you can request to join here). If you are a member, the details - including international dial in numbers and time - are here.

Justin Fogarty is Managing Editor of Supply Excellence. For any questions or feedback on the blog or its contributors, Justin can be reached at jfogarty[at]ariba.com.
