☀ The West Coast Forum took place a few weeks ago in Burbank, California (LA) bringing together a fantastic group of members and prospects to discuss the global intricacies of centralising the procurement function amid a large-scale merger at Warner Bros. Discovery. ☀ The event kicked off at Grand Master Recorders with an evening of networking, overlooking the iconic Hollywood sign. Key sessions included: - Carol Danoff, CPO: "Winning in Mergers & Organisational Design." Carol shared how centralising the function through the merger set them up to deliver 10x value to the business, aligning with our latest Process & Performance research. - James Ford, Head of LATAM Airlines for WBD: Discussed the 'North Star' concept and how setting a long-term vision helped prioritise and accelerate progress, resonating with our 2030 Glidepaths. - Kevin Will, Head of EMEA & APAC: Shared insights on working with international teams and the importance of understanding cultural differences. Thank you to all attendees! Shoutout to our headline partner SpendHQ hashtag #PLWCF
As I depart LAX back to London, I’m looking back at the photos of the last few days of Procurement Leaders | A World 50 Group Community West Coast Forum in association with SpendHQ and it really hits home on what has been a fantastic trip. With 40 of the regions biggest and brightest procurement leaders gathered together at Warner Bros. Discovery’s Studios we had the opportunity to hear about the global intricacies of centralizing the Procurement function amid a large-scale merger at their organisation. With the entire leadership team really leaning in and sharing all of the component parts that have made it a success, and the day completed with a tour of the studios and back lot itself, it was as insightful as it was an energising day for all involved. A huge thank you to all of the WBD team but Carol Danoff and Kevin Kratky in particular for their leadership and organisation in hosting the community onsite and putting together a great programme to match and again to Pierre Laprée and the team at SpendHQ for their continued partnership. And as ever to the awesome onsite Procurement Leaders team for delivering yet another world class experience to our members and partners. So as I leave LA, on this occasion there’s only one appropriate last thing to say…..”That’s all folks!”.
