Why this course
Every quarter you scramble to assemble risk evidence from multiple spreadsheets, email threads, and legacy contracts. The lack of a unified register forces you to hand-craft presentations for the executive committee, often missing critical controls and exposing you to blame when a vendor failure surfaces.
Your sourcing team is forced to juggle manual checklists, ad-hoc approvals, and duplicated effort across regions. When the audit window opens, senior leadership asks for a single source of truth and you spend days reconciling contradictory data, risking missed deadlines and a tarnished reputation.
The stakes are personal: a mis-aligned risk view can trigger a leadership review, delay strategic deals, and put your promotion on hold. Without a repeatable process, each new vendor request becomes a potential career-costing crisis.
