About this Resource

AI adoption in procurement will fail if the technology outpaces the people. This eBook addresses the human side of the transformation: the new skills architecture, the leadership behaviors required to manage resistance and adoption, and the structural team changes needed to make cognitive and agentic AI work in practice.
