SSON Events

SSON produces over 35 shared services and outsourcing events worldwide every year. These events are where you get to meet people facing the same challenges you are and where you meet people who will be a couple of years or many more ahead of you in their service sourcing journey. Whether its advice on running a captive efficiently or who and where to go for your next outsourcing contract, asking your peers can be invaluable.

The plenary sessions feature some of the luminaries of the space, if back office sourcing were more like Hollywood, SSON events would definitely be starring the Brads and Angelinas of the day. Prepare to be inspired but also prepare to work hard, rather than have you sit passively in front of 12 powerpoint based presentations we're asking you to get involved. Our presenters are asked not to use more than 3 slides and to really pose interactive challenging questions to get the audience participating and walking away with ideas they can execute rather than workbooks.

At our flagship Shared Services Week series based on four continents, you'll also get access to the G8 panels - we've invited some of the very best sell side brains in the shared services and outsourcing space to give their forecasts on medium and long term activity, we think it would be a very good idea to listen.

Testimonials

"This is the first time that Intercomp Global Services embarked on this type of collaboration with SSON. But our team has been impressed with the professionalism in the way this service was delivered and all our expectations were exceeded. The webinar we delivered in association with SSON was slick and very well organized delivering more leads than we expected and we didn’t even have to leave the office! Intercomp Global Services is very much looking forward to become a long term partner with SSON"

Sheri Sullivan , CEO , Intercomp Global Services

The new digital Shared Services News looks quite instrumental & helpful in creating awareness, sharing and gaining a lot about shared services & related fields.

I participated in SSON 7th Asian HRSS conference in Singapore as a Speaker and since then, I have been witnessing a great visibility of SSON through various means.

I truly appreciate the dedication & hard work of SSON team by the way of various initiatives & inventions around shared services.

Keep up the great work. Best wishes to the entire INHOUSE TEAM.

I have just read the February 2009 issue of Shared Services News and was impressed with the content. It's a quality magazine.

Pat Blake , Partner, Shared Services Practice Lead , ScottMadden Inc.

I just wanted to let you know that this issue of the Shared Services News was a delight to read! The content was well arranged, easy to ‘look at’ and had something for everyone I believe. Fantastic job!

Susan Stallings , Vice President , BPO Solutions

In a world that is rapidly changing , where everyday globally people are learning new and better ways of delivering processes and technology being part of the SSON online network is of tremendous value to share and learn from each other . More importantly being part of thought leadership forums, G8, interviews etc allows companies like Genpact who participate to lead the industry forward. We value the opportunity to share our vision and journey and learn from those of others and the SSON and we should all explore newer ways of leveraging this for the common good of the industry and the practice.
