Catch up on our recent 'The Purpose of Contracts' webinar:

Without a clear purpose, we can’t measure results. And that is one of the key problems we face as contract managers and lawyers. Our research confirms that there is no consistent view of why we have contracts or what they seek to achieve.

This thought-provoking webinar doesn’t just pose awkward questions. It provides insights and answers, which create a compelling vision of the role and importance of contract management. With case studies and interviews to back up its findings, this research should not be missed.
