EP 50: The Gap We’re Seeing Between Performance and Progression in Procurement Careers
EP 50: The Gap We’re Seeing Between Performance and Progression in Procurement Careers Procurement careers are evolving, but many procurement professionals are not seeing the progression their performance deserves. If you're a procurement leader or senior professional focused on career progression, this episode explores why doing a good job is no longer enough. In this episode of Procurement Pivots, we explore the gap we’re consistently seeing between performance and progression in procurement careers. We are working with capable, experienced procurement professionals who are delivering results and doing a good job. Yet for many, that is not translating into the visibility, recognition or opportunities they expected. If you are serious about your procurement career progression, this episode will challenge how you think about growth. In this episode we discuss: Why doing a good job is no longer enough in today’s procurement landscape The disconnect between what procurement delivers and how it is perceived Why capability is rarely the issue, even when confidence starts to dip The difference between knowing your value and showing it consistently How changing ways of working are impacting visibility and progression Why progression now requires a shift in how you think, communicate and show up Procurement careers no longer progress by default. They progress through intention. To mark our one-year anniversary, we are also hosting our first live, interactive Procurement Pivots workshop where we will go deeper into this topic and help you apply it to your own situation. Let us know in the comments: Where do you see the biggest gap between performance and progression in your procurement career?
