As globalization increases and borders fade, supply professionals face tough challenges as well as potential opportunities. They also have more responsibility and accountability than ever before. Individual job functions are now fully interrelated, making expertise in multiple areas of supply management critical for today's professionals. Supply managers must leverage opportunities and extend the boundaries of supply capabilities—they must Dare to Lead.

*The CPSM Bridge Exam will NOT be available during CPSM pilot testing. It will be available for the first time at ISM's International Conference, May 4-7, 2008 in St. Louis, Missouri.
