2026

Time:

To be confirmed

The first 180 days will define your reputation

The decisions you make in your first 180 days as a procurement leader will shape everything that follows.

This is a hands-on, workshop-style session (final date & London venue TBC) designed to help you build momentum, credibility, and stakeholder trust in your Procurement Leadership role

What you’ll walk away with

This isn’t a webinar. It’s a practical working session designed to help you cut through the noise and make an impact from day one.

You’ll leave with concrete, repeatable ways to:

  • Align with C-suite priorities
  • Control the levers that matter most
  • Execute fast, visible wins


What we’ll cover (and actually practise)

Expect exercises, real-world scenarios, and workshop discussions - not just theory.

  • How to quickly diagnose your procurement maturity and stakeholder landscape
  • The traps procurement leaders most often fall into in their first six months - and how to avoid them
  • What a high-impact 180-day roadmap looks like in practice
  • Practical ways to align with the C-suite and surface business-critical opportunities, fast
  • How to apply AI-enabled ProcureTech tools from day one

Who it’s for

This workshop is designed for senior procurement professionals who are stepping into a new leadership role, have recently started and want to set the right direction, or are between roles and preparing for their next opportunity. It combines practical exercises, real-world scenarios, and interactive discussions where participants collaborate with peers, exchange experiences, and shape the conversation throughout the day. Spaces are limited, with priority given to those who have recently started or are about to begin a new procurement leadership role. Once registrations are confirmed, demand will determine whether the workshop runs in-person, hybrid, or fully virtual.
