http://dofonline.co.uk/blogs/treasury-matters/credit-crunch/outsourcing-1522214/ Financial insight from industry thought leader Joergen Jensen Tue, 16 Mar 2010 19:03:19 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 http://dofonline.co.uk/blogs/treasury-matters/credit-crunch/outsourcing-1522214/#comment-1682 Patrick Cade Mon, 01 Mar 2010 22:17:11 +0000 http://dofonline.co.uk/blogs/treasury-matters/?p=22#comment-1682 I totally agree about the globalisation of the workforce. Competitive advantage for companies is now gained through the global deployment of skills and talent, where previously skills and talent were sourced only nationally. But there is a balance and one I have seen working well and that is the blended model. Not the all or nothing model. Onshore management and workflow, client relationship management with offshore delivery is a tried and tested model. I have seen it working very well recently in the outsourcing of Finance and Accounts. It's not done often and it has to be done well. When it is - it really is a deal winner. In addition, globalisation if seen as a proactive measure can be superbly liberating for the switched on organisation and individual. It doesn't have to be the employment killer that it is painted as. I have seen organisations transformed, I have seen departments revolutionised when outsourcing is seen as an enabler not a thorn in the side. I totally agree about the globalisation of the workforce.

Only the US is subject to human right violations. Just look at China and India, they dont't follow the same rules. In other words, this will never be an equal playing field. Whether you like it or not, that is the reality. The problem with outsourcing is that its promoting slavery around the world. Only the US is subject to human right violations.
