It’s great to meet you!

I’m Lourdes Coss – author, executive coach, professional speaker, consultant, and trainer. I specialize in procurement, leadership and transformation.  My philosophy of procurement performance is:

Leadership is a key differentiator between thriving procurement teams and those that struggle to have a voice in the organization.

When training includes leadership and personal development, transformation is possible. I know this works! I saw it first-hand while leading procurement transformations for multi-billion dollar organizations like Cook County, City of Houston, the University of Illinois at Chicago, and others.
Before running my own business, I held Chief Procurement Officer and executive level positions at some of the largest government organizations in the US. Nowadays you’ll find me traveling all over the US speaking at conferences, working on my next book at a café, or sampling the local cuisine – all while adding value and catching up with colleagues and friends.
