Transcend People Limited | Inside Outsourcing

Here’s a great promotion for those of you interested in learning more about outsourcing. Farrar, Straus and Giroux is offering a free audio edition of Thomas Friedman’s The World is Flat. If you haven’t read it already, Friedman begins by taking readers into Infosys, the Indian outsourcing juggernaut, and then traces the history and reasons behind the global outsourcing movement.

The promotion is available through August 4th. You can sign up for the free audio book by following this link: http://www.thomaslfriedman.com/giveaway.

We subscribe to the Knowledge@Wharton e-newsletter – and in the most recent issue we received, we got this message:

Wipro Technologies and Knowledge@Wharton are conducting a survey on how companies prefer to source business processes from outside providers and how they ensure the quality of those services. This is the first survey in a two-part series. Please take a few minutes to respond to our questionnaire via the link below. All responses will be kept confidential, and the results will appear in a report to be published by Wipro and Knowledge@Wharton. Many thanks for your participation.

We’re pretty interested in hearing the results of this survey, so if you source your business processes and are inclined to participate, here’s the link:
