To change or not to change: When to, how to, and do we have to?

André Mundal is the author of "De flinkeste slutter" ("The Best People Quit – A Diplomat’s Perspective on the System Paradox"). In his presentation, he explores how the world is changing at an increasingly accelerated pace, disrupting supply chains, systems, and how talent moves in the world of work. As the tempo intensifies, some survive while others succumb. Some lead, others lag behind. What does this mean for the procurement industry and how do you retain the talent needed to adapt?
