DPW Shares Biggest CPO Hires in 2022
2022 has been an unprecedented year: supply chain disruptions, Ukraine war, labour shortages, inflation. You name it – we have seen it.
That is what makes DPW’s “Biggest CPO Hires in 2022” list so extra special and meaningful this year showcasing 33 exceptional leaders that stepped into the CPO role propelling the industry forward at this incredibly difficult time.
We focused on those CPOs who lead large companies because that role comes with a particular power and responsibility. Their companies have the scale and reach to impact millions of lives, for good and for ill. How those leaders choose to manage their operations can set a new gold standard for procurement’s role in positively impacting people, planet and profit.
Great news, it was another year of progress for female executives, as many women ascended to the top of their procurement departments. Here are our biggest CPO hires in 2022:
