077: A CIO's Guide to the Rules of Engagement with IT, w/ Kendra Von Esh

In my experience, there are few stakeholder relationships that are as important, or as fractious, as those between procurement and IT - particularly when it comes to supporting strategic purchases.  How can we turn this relationship on its head, and become friends and not foes?
