Guest: Reggie Williams, CEO of Procurement Resources, Inc.
"The tent is getting larger, and the tent doesn't have a door that is closed to anyone. The more we are all aligned in this process called stakeholder capitalism, the greater the benefits to all of us. I don't want to exclude anyone."
Titus and David are joined by special guest Reggie Williams, CEO of Procurement Resources and the leader who coined the phrase supplier diversity. In this episode, we discuss the history of supplier diversity, including stakeholder capitalism, investing back into your community, the numbers behind why this is important, and what it truly means to have a real supplier diversity program.
