Outsourcing is a $6 trillion global industry, and one of the
most-discussed topics in business today. It also is one of very few
business tools available to managers with the power to fundamentally
transform their organizations. When implemented on a global scale,
outsourcing enables companies to simultaneously reengineer existing
operations, create a more flexible and adaptable organizational
structure, and tap the best minds in the world to unleash an innovation
explosion.
Whether you're an executive considering outsourcing,
work for a company that provides those services, or are concerned about
your own career in this new outsourced economy, The Outsourcing
Revolution: Why it Makes Sense and How to do it Right will help you
better understand what is happening, what is likely to happen in the
future, why, and how to take advantage of the opportunities being
created. Outsourcing's best-known expert and pioneer Michael F. Corbett
– who has been writing and coaching executives on outsourcing's best
practices for more than a decade and helped craft IBM's entry into the
business – explains how to:
·Determine the value of outsourcing for any business process. ·Analyze the risks, evaluate their potential impact, and use a range of techniques to reduce, eliminate, and manage them. ·Identify, evaluate, and select the right partner or partners. ·Turn contractor relationships into long-term, successful outsourcing relationships. ·Transition people, processes, and technologies to the outsourcing state. ·Identify, develop, and reward outsourcing managers. ·Create new ways of doing business ahead of the competition.
The
Outsourcing Revolution: Why it Makes Sense and How to do it Right is
written for everyone affected by the new outsourced economy especially
executives and managers in organizations of all sizes who want to learn
how outsourcing can improve their company's performance. Corbett has
combined his decade-plus experience with outsourcing and globalization
into a single, executable, management system.
Experts agree
that we are just at the dawn of outsourcing. Over the next decade, as
much as 70 percent of a typical executive's budget will be outsourced,
as it already is in manufacturing. This means that before too long,
most organizations are going to be far more outsourced than they are
in-sourced.
Outsourcing authority Michael F. Corbett believes
that the practice helps build better businesses, stronger economies,
and a more prosperous way of life for everyone and his book shows how
to do it right. .
Learn: ·Key drivers, opportunities and challenges of contemporary outsourcing. ·A set of management principles that can be used to harness the power of outsourcing. ·A framework upon which to build a successful outsourcing program. ·Case studies of how specific companies planned, implemented, and are managing outsourcing. ·Survey
results detailing what more than 1,500 companies worldwide are doing
regarding outsourcing, why, and what does and doesn't work.
More
than a "how to" book, The Outsourcing Revolution provides a
comprehensive framework for decision making and action based on the
real-life experiences of executives heading up successful initiatives
for their companies today.
