CPO Programme

Take your seat

The CPO Programme helps senior procurement leaders get ahead - and stay ahead - of the challenges and changes in business, the Procurement function, and the macro environment.

Through market-leading insights, CPO benchmarking studies, professional development programmes, CPO labs, and peer-to-peer executive networking, we keep CPOs informed and prepared to meet today and tomorrow’s demands.

The CPO Programme offers forward-thinking insights for every stage of your career. It includes our Next Generation CPO Academy for aspiring CPOs, CPO Transition Labs for first time CPOs and those moving organisation, and Transition Accelerators for procurement leaders looking to refresh their priorities following organisation or leadership changes.

Three key pillars of the CPO Programme

The CPO Programme supports you with insights, tools, experiences, international networks and learning opportunities. The programme centres on three key pillars:

Next Generation CPO Academy   

Our Next Generation CPO Academy is a unique experience that helps prepare promising procurement executives for a future CPO role. Senior procurement leaders are nominated by their current CPO as having the talent and aspiration to take on a CPO role.

This exclusive two-day event provides participants with a platform for accelerated personal development, access to insights from C-suite Executives on the skills and capabilities required to succeed as a CPO, and unparalleled cross industry networking opportunities.

By invitation only

CPO Transition Labs 

The Deloitte CPO Transition Lab is specifically designed to support you at the most challenging and critical times in your career. Whether you are stepping up to a CPO role for the first time or have experience of the role, a structured plan is essential to success.

Our personalised one-day workshop supports you by framing your priorities, assessing talent, influencing stakeholders, and, ultimately, developing a robust plan for a successful transition.

Deloitte Global CPO Survey 

Since 2011, the Deloitte Global Chief Procurement Officer (CPO) Survey has been providing exclusive insights into the key challenges and opportunities shaping the course of procurement. The insights have, over the years, helped members of the C-suite, procurement leaders, business partners, suppliers, and supporting technology providers in furthering their ambition, strategies, and performance.
