I always think - let's not assume anything here. Easier said than done, though.
And Procurement Pros can have a bit of a chip on their shoulder with a lack of engagement in "things" being problematic, but likely down to a poor set-up or a lack of understanding as to what procurement does, rather than any other reasons.
It's so true - we've all fallen into the trap of thinking that we're waaayyyy more important to other people than we actually are.... especially in a work environment. I was told a few years ago to forget worrying what people think as their thoughts (and ours) are completely private and no one's business other than their own - which makes sense really.
That is the best advice you can probably get.
