The fourth in our series of webinars will again reveal key statistics and will be based on a Q&A format, with Bill Kirby as our main speaker.

A panel will then take questions from the host and the attendees. Surveys and live polls will ensure that the speakers cover the aspects that the attendees deem most important.

For this session on outsourcing, we envisage that the questions will be based on:

  • operational areas that suit outsourcing
  • what outsourcing success looks like
  • the pitfalls to avoid
  • key contract terms
  • regulatory issues
  • third party risk management
