Procurement Unfiltered
Procurement Unfiltered: Getting Away with Change
Innovation is easy to talk about. Delivering it inside a large organisation is much harder.
Join procurement and sustainability leaders for an honest, interactive discussion on why good ideas often struggle to survive, what separates people who successfully deliver change from those who do not, and how procurement can become a genuine catalyst for innovation and sustainability.
Hosted at the Vattenfall office in the heart of the City, the conversation will be led by two experienced practitioners:
Kristen Filice – Senior sustainability leader focused on climate risk and resilience, transition planning, and Scope 3 decarbonisation across multiple FTSE 100 companies.
Noël Coenraad – Sustainable Project Manager building Vattenfall's leading and sustainable supply chain, negotiated first-of-a-kind offtake agreements for low-emission steel and cement.
Expect candid stories, challenging opinions, audience debate, and practical insights from professionals who have successfully navigated the realities of organisational change. No conference clichés, no polished case studies, and no exhausting monologues.
Just real-world experiences, hard truths, and lessons learned. Most importantly, you will get the opportunity to share your wins and fails with the group and hopefully learn new ways to drive sustainable innovation in your work.
Whether you're looking to unlock supplier innovation, accelerate sustainability outcomes, or drive meaningful transformations, this session will provide fresh perspectives and valuable connections with peers facing similar challenges.
Come ready to challenge assumptions, share your views, and join the conversation.
