(UTC-04:00) America/New_YorkHello, Go for the Greens community!
We know many of you are hurting or at least stumped right now about how to do business, whether you’re a woman-owned company or you’re a supplier diversity or procurement professional. The COVID-19 pandemic’s effects are taking a toll on the economy worldwide. But there is still plenty of commerce going on … you just might need to change your strategy.
This is Cindy Chace and Diane Sears, co-founders of the Go for the Greens Foundation, inviting you to join us for a FREE informative and productive program, “A Healthy Supply Chain in the Time of COVID-19,” at 2 p.m. Eastern each Wednesday through June. Each one-hour weekly session features online interviews with supply chain professionals, followed by information about virtual matchmakers conducted in partnership with certified woman-owned business Collider Management Group, led by our friend Leyla Eagle.
HOW TO DO BUSINESS WITH UPS
Our first guest organization is UPS Supplier Diversity. Our experts will answer your questions, including: What is your organization looking for right now from suppliers? What information do you need from potential suppliers to help you make your decisions? How have your communication channels with current and potential suppliers changed because of the pandemic? How do you become a Tier 2 supplier under the current conditions? What do I need to know about doing business with your organization today?
The program is part of the Go for the Greens Foundation’s outreach, which also includes a virtual mentorship series for young women in high school and college. Participating organizations in addition to UPS include Walt Disney World, Kaman Industries, Moffitt Cancer Center, Nike and others.
