167: The Value of Real Life Networking in a Virtual World w/ Tania Seary

Tania Seary is passionate about raising the profile of procurement, and is a master connector, and networker.  She is the Founding Chairman of Procurious, The Faculty and The Source, and in 2016 was named "Influencer of the Year" by Supply Chain Dive magazine. I was delighted to invite Tania back onto the show for what is now her third appearance.  I wanted to dig deeper into her success as a networker – with a focus on how to balance our online and in-person networking in an age where "connecting" is as easy as a click of a button.  What can we do to make meaningful relationships out of those connections that we make online? We caught up on the progress that Procurious has seen over the past 12 months and their plans for the future – if you are a Procurious member, or have interest in joining, you'll enjoy this behind the scenes look!
