Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
Overall this was a good training on an intro to strategic purchasing. Most topics covered were an "overview" of concepts and did not really dive into the "how" of actually achieving the goals and putting them into practice though. I would have found it to be slightly more beneficial if there were in-depth discussions on how to practice the strategic purchasing concepts presented rather than going over the definitions and basic meaning of the areas encompassed within the strategic purchasing discussion.

Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
The poll questions are the only thing that I did not like about this presentation/training. It was clearly a marketing tool to sell us and get us to sign up for more trainings. I could have done without it. also, if the presenter would put the slideshow they create in full screen mode it would have made it a lot easier to follow. I wasn't able to print out all 50+ slides to follow along on my own like I normally would for a training. information however was excellent and enlightening for someone like me looking to transition into a more strategy based Lead Purchaser.

Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
It started late. The audio was horrible. couldn't understand half of what host was saying. Presenter was muffled. Dog was barking. Phone was ringing. Presentation was outdated. Slides contained too much jumbled information.

Do you have any other comments, questions or concerns?
I attended your purchasing Webinar with Ken Jones and it was excellent. This one was terrible. The sound quality should have been tested before the webinar. He was probably using his computer mike and it was all garbled, even cutting out at times. The slides look like they were made in the 90's. The material was such a broad overview that it didn't really tell you anything.
