SUSAN NI CHRIODAIN

Susan founded Beyond the Numbers to work with teams and individuals in organisations who know that putting people first generates the greatest return. Her experience and business acumen stem from a wide variety of commercial and non-profit operational, project and financial roles. For over 20 years she led and managed teams in Europe, Africa, Asia, in-person and remotely. An FD at 33 she learnt that to have an impact required you to be brave, bold and to build strong working relationships. Technical excellence wasn’t enough; the ability to interact and influence others was key. She has a practical, no-nonsense approach to understanding and facilitating others to resolve their workplace issues no matter how intractable they might seem. Susan hosts Life Beyond the Numbers podcast for people who are curious about having a more fulfilling work-life

ALISON SMITH

Alison Smith’s university career’s adviser said procurement would be the perfect career for her and 38 years later she still agrees.

After a more traditional career in direct and indirect procurement she’s now a procurement coach, trainer, and speaker.

In addition to her technical category management knowledge, she adds her soft skills and creative thinking expertise to her work.

It’s during the merger between Halifax building Society and Bank of Scotland over 20 years ago that Alison first started using metaphor in her work to improve performance of the merging procurement team.

The effectiveness of metaphor to facilitate change led to Alison writing Can’t see the wood for the trees – landscaping your life to get back on track with many of the examples shared involving her work with procurement or business teams.

Alison is especially passionate about bringing our humanity into business not leaving it at the door and is looking forward to discussing ethical leadership and decision making in Finance and Procurement.
