Very interesting and useful to hear what others have done in their SSOs and excellent networking

Bard Frydenlund, AF Gruppen ASA Shared Services & Outsourcing Scandinavia 2006

I picked up a couple of brilliant pieces of the puzzle that I’d been missing

Dontcho Kutchoukov, Tarkett Holding GmbH Shared Services Week 2007

Superb. We went back to the office recharged with new ideas

Jane Lingard, Gillette Financial Services Europe Shared Services Week 2005

Your CFO demands continued cost savings, your customers want high quality services and your staff need a clear career path with high rewards and renummeration.

Sound familiar?

Balancing these demands as your SSC develops is not an easy task, but that’s exactly what you need to do if your SSC is going to consolidate its position as a value-adding business partner. However as you know, the real challenge for Nordic SSCs is not only achieving this balance, but doing so whilst combating high operating costs and low levels of unemployment.

Who will I meet and who is speaking?

Spanning Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Iceland and the Baltic Region, the 2nd annual Nordic Shared Services and Outsourcing Forum is uniquely focused on addressing the challenges that SSCs operating services in and for this region face. No-one understands the specific pressures that you face better than someone else who faces exactly the same challenges, which is why this event has been created after extensive market research with experienced Shared Services practitioners from the Nordic region.

This is your opportunity to meet with and learn from your peers, so that you can brainstorm solutions together to the specific regional challenges you face.

This is the only forum for Shared Services that’s dedicated 100% to addressing the challenges of operating Shared Services in or for the Nordic region. This isn’t just a European event that’s being held in the Nordic region, this is a Nordic programme for Nordic SSCs and practitioners.

Attend Nordic Shared Services and Outsourcing Forum 2008 and leave armed and ready to:

Develop a global procurement strategy that will drive continued cost savings and efficiency gains: Join Nokia to explore how the right Shared Services strategy can optimise your Procurement operations
Drive maximum value from your SSC in a small-scale operation: Norske Skogindustrier ASA share their secrets of driving continued cost savings and increasing efficiency.
Leverage your outsourcing partnership to optimise your service offering and maintain quality whilst cutting costs: Learn from SKF and Alsbridge as they reveal how they’ve worked together to achieve optimal results.
Maximise cost savings and efficiency gains by transitioning to a multifunctional Shared Services model: Gain first-hand insights from Lego who will demonstrate how their Shared Services programme has made a significant impact on cost savings across the business

Plus! Brand New For 2008: Maximise your time out of the office and shape your own conference programme. On the afternoon of Wednesday 30th April choose between either:

Option A: 11.00 – 15.00: Site Visit to The City of Copenhagen’s SSC
Option B: 11.00 – 15.00: Interactive advanced optimization workshop: Shared Services - Myths and Reality: Can Shared Services really be used to drive World Class performance?

Don't miss this event because...

Whether you’re looking to optimise and improve your existing SSC, or if you’re still at the planning and implementing stage, this event will also give innovative strategies that will fast-track your SSC up the value chain. Creating a World Class SSC in the Nordic region might be more challenging than doing the same in other regions, but it’s not impossible. Let leading SSCs including, Nokia, Lego, Statoil, and Norske Skogindustrier show you how.
