Driving Value Through Supplier Relationship Management

Travel is global, but expectations are deeply local. A CX model that works in Paris collapses in Tokyo. A workflow designed for North America fails instantly in Brazil. Add behavioural context – disruption, urgency, anxiety – and even the same traveller can behave like an entirely different persona. This session explores the strategic framework for building support systems that scale globally while adapting to culture, emotion, and real-time behaviour.

In this session, I’ll explore the critical role of being the bridge between product and technology, where true product development excellence happens. Drawing on my experience in transformation, including agile transformation and large-scale delivery, I’ll share how connecting vision with execution, and people with purpose leads to better collaboration, stronger outcomes, and more impactful products — the cornerstone of product and agile excellence.

Bridging Automation Intelligence and Strategic Sourcing

I will outline how agentic AI and automation are transforming procurement dynamics. This session will unpack practical strategies for integrating intelligent automation with dynamic pricing models and real-time contract monitoring, illustrated through real-world applications within our industry.

Pre-Start Phase:

1.Patient Safety Review:

  • Assess patient demographics, drug specifics, AE (Adverse Event) incidence rates, available resources, and programme design fundamentals
  • Integrate multifaceted support resources, including call centres, educational materials, and digital tools

2.Contracting Essentials:

  • Determine the need for standalone PVAs (Pharmacovigilance Agreements) or safety clauses
  • Critical contract elements: Include audit rights, clear definitions, mandatory training, AE reporting procedures, contact details, and reconciliation processes

3.AE Training and Vendor Setup:

  • Implement comprehensive AE training protocols
  • Establish a robust vendor monitoring strategy with clear KPIs, defined monitoring frequency, and audit readiness

During the Programme:

1.Vendor Performance and AE Monitoring:

  • Conduct regular vendor reviews to ensure compliance with contractual obligations
  • Maintain ongoing reconciliation and monitor AE trends to identify any emerging issues

Post Completion:

Impact of Strategic Sourcing as a Profit Center, Leveraging Transparency for Competitive Advantage

This session will move beyond viewing sourcing as a cost-cutting function. We will explore how a mature, data-driven strategic sourcing strategy directly contributes to the bottom line and enhances corporate governance. Key points will include:

In an evolving landscape where customer expectations continually rise, understanding and proactively addressing customer needs is no longer optional—it’s essential. This session explores how empathy-driven customer experience (CX), combined with strategic automation and cutting-edge AI, can radically enhance efficiency, agent performance, and customer loyalty. Leveraging real-world insights and innovative frameworks, discover practical ways to future-proof your contact centre operations.

Futuristic Procurement Competency Framework

Procurement for the common man is basically buying: a skill that everyone if practicing on a daily basis. In the procurement industry, some might consider it as a profession from a pure academic point of view. How can we transform procurement into a formal profession while making it relevant in the AI era?

At Accor, our journey in embedding Strength-Based Leadership and building an ecosystem of coaches is a strategic priority and a cornerstone of our people development philosophy.

In our pursuit of a coaching culture, we’ve implemented a range of initiatives that bring together the best different developmental resources. These initiatives are not standalone programmes; they are part of a deliberate, connected effort to empower our leaders and teams. By focusing on individual and collective strengths, and grounded in core coaching principles, we are shaping a workplace where continuous learning, empathy, and performance go hand in hand. This culture fosters not only personal growth but also drives team resilience, engagement, and business impact.

Rather than just talking about the theory, we want you to hear directly from our leaders. They will share how adopting a coaching mindset has transformed their leadership and the tangible difference it has made for their teams and the organisation as a whole.

Strategic Supplier Bonds: Prioritising Responsible Procurement at the Board Table and Charting the Path to 2035

In this high-stakes conference, we’re united by our commitment to procurement’s transformative potential. Today, I’ll outline strategies for developing deep, trust-based relationships with suppliers that transcend efficiency to unlock shared value. We’ll explore whether responsible procurement has truly become a board-level priority and how C-suite alignment can redefine ethical and operational standards. We’ll close by forecasting Procurement 2035: the strategies we’ll lead, and the outdated ones we’ll leave behind.

For decades, leadership has been benchmarked against outcomes — growth, profitability, market share. But as we enter an era defined by complexity, stakeholder capitalism, and workforce fluidity, the metrics for leadership success are evolving.

 

Today’s most successful organisations aren’t just technology-enabled or agile — they are human-centred by design. Why? Because the greatest differentiator is no longer strategy or digital capability — it’s the human system behind it. Human-centred leadership is now the critical foundation for driving engagement, innovation, and resilience in a world where uncertainty is constant and value creation is deeply intertwined with trust, purpose, and well-being. This session reframes human-centred leadership as a strategic operating model — one that redefines performance, strengthens culture, and aligns leadership behaviours with long-term enterprise value.
