    We live and work in a busy world in which there is little time to read, watch or listen
    beyond the headlines.

    Hello, my name is Iain Campbell-McKenna, and this is “Procurement in 5-minutes.” That’s right, in 5-minutes I promise to tackle some of the biggest challenges and
    deepest questions our profession and industry face on a day-to-day basis.

    In today’s special extended procurement in 5 minutes, I’m delighted to be joined by
    Velda Berryman, Director of Strategic Sourcing & Supplier Management at CDK, to answer the question.

    Is stakeholder management often overlooked in Procurement?

    Velda has been working in procurement for many years, holding various roles such as
    material planning, warehouse inventory management, and manufacturing direct and
    indirect side. She has been in the technology industry for the last 5 years. Throughout
    her illustrious career, she has learned that building relationships and strong social skills
    are critical, regardless of the industry you work in. This makes her the ideal person to
    answer the question: Is stakeholder management often overlooked in
    Procurement?
