In this episode of “Buy: The Way… To Purposeful Procurement,” Rich Ham, Philip Ideson, and Kelly Barner reflect on what we heard from Oliver Hurrey and Brian Kyle in episodes 3 and 4 and explore how these procurement leaders find purpose and passion in their work, no matter how big or small the project is. Rich, Philip, and Kelly discuss what “purposeful procurement” truly means in 2025, challenging the notion that practitioners can only find purpose when they're working for highly-mission driven organizations. With the right mindset, purpose and the potential for positive impact are within reach for any procurement professional working in any category. Living and working with purpose also requires trust – trust among stakeholders and colleagues, trust with your suppliers, and in many cases, trust from the end consumer. When procurement faces challenges like flawed incentive structures and outdated standardization, it ultimately makes it harder for procurement to drive meaningful impact at scale. Reflecting on these opportunities and challenges along procurement's path to greater purpose, Rich, Philip, and Kelly also look ahead to upcoming discussions where they'll take a deeper dive into how procurement arrived at its current state and some of the potential solutions that could help procurement reach its potential as a driver of purposeful change.

The stakes are always high for procurement, but at mission-driven non-profits like the American Cancer Society, procurement is working to – quite literally – help save lives. In this powerful fourth episode of “Buy: The Way…To Purposeful Procurement,” co-hosts Philip Ideson, Founder of Art of Procurement, and Rich Ham, CEO of Fine Tune, speak with Brian Kyle, Vice President of Supply Chain and Accounts Payable at the American Cancer Society, to explore what enterprise procurement can learn from mission-first organizations like ACS. Brian shares the kind of transformative mindset shift that happens when you transition to a nonprofit environment where every donor dollar is stretched as far as it can possibly go to directly impact the cause – in this case, the fight against cancer. He also explains how mission-driven environments create a kind of gravitational pull across the entire organization – suppliers included – where everyone is laser focused on the same set of goals and success metrics. Brian breaks down how this coalescence around a shared mission to help save millions of lives creates unprecedented levels of collaboration and collaborative decision making, engagement, trust, relationship building, and value beyond savings. The procurement team at ACS represents the essence of purposeful procurement and offers a tangible example of practices and perspectives that even private businesses can adopt to elevate their impact and find purpose in their work.

In a special joint episode of the Short Time Wrestling Podcast, we go in tandem with the founder of the FRB Show, and that's internet MMA insider Front Row Brian.FRB and I are co-branding this particular episode and we'll talk with Kyle Dake about his upcoming match with Greco-Roman world champion Arsen Julfalakyan of Armenia. Before we get to take, FRB and myself will talk a little bit about our paths in becoming wrestling fans, which started through the world of sports entertainment (or professional wrestling, whichever you want to call it).You can check out Front Row Brian's podcast at www.soundcloud.com/FRBshow.

Dake answers questions about his injury, why he's wrestling the reigning world champion in Greco-Roman as part of the Global Wrestling Championships, his thoughts on Aaron Pico's decision to sign with Bellator and wrestle freestyle as well as any prospects he might have in the world of mixed martial arts.The second half of our show featured 2006 Greco-Roman world champion and self-proclaimed Baddest Man on the Planet, Joe Warren. Warren's one of the headlining athletes competing in the Grapple at the Garden as Team Joe Warren takes on Team Renzo Gracie in a club vs. club-style dual meet. Joe talks about the event, his thoughts on Dake wrestling Greco-Roman, the individual matchups and personalities, which includes Mo Lawal, Stephen Abas and Gray Maynard.
