It is!

I've currently working on a piece for the paid members around this. It will likely be out in December.

This space is changing fast so you're doomed to be out-of-date whenever you publish.

To learn best practices and stay abreast of current trends, technology and world events that impact our profession. I'd also value collaborative content with other business functions (finance, marketing...).

Appreciate that, Kevin. My intention is as World of Procurement grows (in revenue via subscriptions on Substack) that I can reinvest that money into widening the collaboration pieces into other areas of the business.

To get exposed to new ProcureTech ideas, help identify preconceived notions I may have and challenge them.

Fresh perspectives, unbiased and no BS! Plus the opportunity to learn new stuff that most others aren't talking about (at least in a coherent and actionable way!)

Awesome - as these Sunday night posts gain more traction, they'll be super useful for that.

I joined because you have an unorthodox and fresh approach to procurement with a deliberate focus on a tech which makes procurement talk much more fun while staying current on trends, insights and tips. There is a potential that your content becomes a one stop shop for a busy procurement professional to get up to speed on things without spending hours online trying to find good resources and keep hitting the pay walls because everything is subscription these days, and being who we are, we just want a decent bang for the buck. I also like how you weave-in self-improvement topics so it’s a well-rounded and relevant content so far. I hope this helps and keep doing what you doing! Cheers

Thanks, Mosha.

I hope my Wednesday newsletter can be that one-stop for many as I work through the formatting.

I'm looking to bring back the Tuesday skills articles/self-improvement articles back soon too but they're likely to be a short burst of 4-6 weeks long a few times a year :D

Super-helpful feedback 🙏
