G8 Think Tank

G8_logo What is the G8 and why did you ask us for it?

When we asked the market “If SSON could fix one problem in the shared services and outsourcing space, what would you want it to be?”, your response was pretty unanimous.

Clear the white noise: You told us who you regard as thought leaders, but you can’t hear the overall message from them for the conflicting voices.

You’re seeking clarity and guidance on your next strategic move to develop your sourcing model and drive greater results. Your challenge is not how to find advice on developing the right plan. It’s being able to hear a clear message about the future of sourcing and how this impacts your strategy. In short, everyone appears to have their own agenda.

To combat this, the SSON have facilitated the creation of the G8: Global Sourcing Think Tank.

But what will G8 actually do? What’s all the hype about?

Established and designed as the world’s first neutral platform to discuss the future direction, scope and challenges faced by outsourcing and shared services organisations, what the G8 will provide you with is a unique opportunity to understand the shared vision of the thought leaders driving forward this space.

No personal agendas can be pursued on this stage and company politics simply won’t be tolerated!
