Spotlight on Sponsorship: Staples & E&I's NextGen Leadership Program
What happens when shared values meet shared vision? In this conversation with Rick Herrmann, VP/GM of Public Sector at Staples, we explore the origins of Staples’ sponsorship of E&Is EdPro NextGen Leadership Program and why leadership development in education matters now more than ever. From investing in people, not just products, to preparing future-ready procurement leaders, Rick shares Staples’ commitment to driving meaningful impact in education and where this partnership is headed next.
