LONDON, July 4, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- If today's Shared Services "house" were to burn down, what would we build in its place to meet the emerging needs of our businesses, customers and consumers? Would it be the same as we have today?
Shared Services and Global Business Services leaders have achieved a great deal in recent years in improving operational efficiency and enhancing control and compliance. Many have also expanded their scope in order to drive economies of scale and process optimisation on a broader stage.
All of this is posing a core question for Shared Services and Global Business Services leaders. How do we move from least cost operator to value creator?
This session will challenge some received wisdom, and examine some fundamentals as well as ways to drive success in newer engagement approaches such as Business Partnering and Global Process Ownership. We will look at the emerging 'platform model' of business as well as how we can exploit data to suit the "new speed of business", and true role of Intelligent Automation.
Steve's experiences of the alternative strategies to drive GBS success offers some great insights into the requirements for the next generation operating model.
Whether you are an aspiring Shared Services or GBS leader, or are already steering this ship through ever changing tides, knowledge sharing between peers is a rare and invaluable opportunity to learn something new and to know you're not alone in addressing the challenges we all face.
Join us for a compelling discussion about what went right in the Thermo Fisher Scientific Journey, with applicable roadmap for all.
If you are unable to join the live session, please register as normal and we will send you a copy of the recording post-event.
