      Revolution (Michael Corbett)

      1. Where outsourcing is today

      2. How to make outsourcing work for you

      3. The future of outsourcing

      Book Abstract

      MAIN IDEA

      Outsourcing is a highly controversial topic. It tends to get blamed whenever jobs move from one country to another. Despite all the bad publicity, however, outsourcing is currently a $6 trillion global industry, and within the next decade will grow appreciably as more and more organizations transform their operations to take advantage of everything outsourcing offers:

      The ability to simultaneously reengineer and upgrade existing operations at the same time as offering new products and services.

      A genuine opportunity to create more flexible and adaptable organizational structures.

      The chance to leverage the skills and resources of organizations worldwide to develop and deliver better products and services.

      In short, outsourcing helps make companies more productive and more competitive in the global marketplace. By harnessing outsourcing intelligently, many organizations will be able to achieve a 10- to 100-fold increase in productivity and competitiveness. That is too big a potential gain to hand to your competitors by ignoring outsourcing.

It is very likely that over the next decade or so, this one-third will climb to 70- or 80-percent - as it already has for manufacturing. This means that before too long most organizations are going to be far more outsourced than they are ‘in-sourced’. This is a fundamental restructuring of organizations that carries enormous implications for all of us - executives, managers, employees, customers and investors alike. For executives and managers, it
