The Journey to Supplier Diversity with Kylie McKinlay
Description
Kylie McKinlay's journey with supplier diversity initiatives began in the late 1990s when she first ventured into the field of Procurement; becoming a diversity advocate, long before it gained global prominence. In this podcast, she emphasises Procurement’s role in actively fostering inclusion alongside other aspects of ESG. Drawing from her own experiences supporting indigenous and diverse communities, she offers valuable guidance to those starting their journey, demonstrating how to seamlessly integrate supplier diversity into their procurement strategies and supply chains. Recorded before Australia's Voice referendum 2023, Kylie underscores the importance of authentic support for diverse suppliers, as a means to showcase an organisation's values and attract employees and investors, rather than regarding it as a standard compliance procedure.
