From the Publisher
"Outsourcing to India: The Offshore Advantage" is designed to be read in a number of ways. You can sit and read it straight through as the chapters follow the logical progression of steps required to work with an outsourcing partner in India:
- India itself is introduced by chapters 1 through to 6, with information on history, politics and travel. - The outsourcing industry in India is profiled by chapters 7 to 11, with information on the major players and locations. - Chapters 12 to 23 constitute the management checklist; a step-by-step guide to outsourcing to India. Alternatively, the individual chapters can be read as primers on each subject area, or the three main chapter groups can be read individually in order to focus on those specific areas. "Outsourcing to India: The Offshore Advantage" offers you the knowledge that you need to work in India, creating a successful outsourcing strategy for your organization.
From the Author
When I first started working with Indian teams I looked in the bookstore for information. There were many guides to India, for backpackers or those interested in ancient history. There were some academic outsourcing guides, full of arcane charts and diagrams depicting the potential ROI of a transition programme. However there was nothing about the practical aspects of being a foreign manager trying to set up an offshore outsourcing contract in India.
This book is targeted at professional managers with a requirement to understand the offshoring process, with a focus on India for non-Indians. Offshore outsourcing is becoming one of the major areas of management where there is a huge shortage of skilled professionals and this book aims to address this issue through practical guidance.
I have found through experience that some knowledge of the history, culture and food of India can really help when doing business. Understanding the sourcing industry sector is also essential when first trying to ascertain who you should partner with (or whether you should just open shop yourself). All this information and a step-by-step guide to the common pitfalls at various stages of the outsourcing process are included in my book.
I wish that I could have bought this book at an airport bookstore the first time I travelled to India on business.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Managers across the world are beating a path to India because it is the global leader for offshore IT-enabled services. Many corporate leaders seek to reduce their costs, other wish to improve service quality, but not many understand India on their first visit and some are confused by clashes of culture. This book aims to introduce India, the major players in the Indian service industry, the reasons why you should utilise India as an offshore outsourcing destination and the steps you need to take to find and work with a local partner. The second edition has been completely revised with up-to-date information on thelatest industry developments. Several chapters have been entirely restructured and two completely new chapters deal with the risks of outsourcing to India and the future prospects for the industry.
