Paras Sood
Paras looks after FP’s overall strategy and our private sector clients. Paras joined us from Deutsche Bank, where he led strategic procurement transformation globally after a career spanning Life Sciences, FMCG, Manufacturing, Raw Materials and the Public Sector in both industry and consulting roles.
In this podcast Paras Sood and Phil Ideson discuss:
- Building a vision through outcomes and learning from failure
- Transformation business cases are shorter than they used to be
- Tackling behaviours is still the number one priority in tackling transformation
- Operating models are about the inter-generational mix alongside value-based-outcomes
- Business partnering is procurement’s primarily relevance for enterprise stakeholders
