Educated in finance, economics and math, Geoff Peters accidentally fell into the world of procurement and has made his mark on the industry. The start of his career found him with companies like Montgomery Wards and a now famous character that sprouted from those infamous catalogues. He moved on to Sears and finally to The Hackett Group where he instilled best practices and forward thinking to create an iconic career where he evolved and matured from a “shoot from the hip” 20-something to a methodical thinker who sees the gray area more than simply black and white or right and wrong. Tune in to hear his perspectives on costs, technology and cybersecurity as well as what it means to have a relationship alliance as well as a purchasing relationship, and how this easy concept is changing procurement alongside the important topics of risk and sustainability.
