Part 1

One factor that can impact employee engagement and block the attainment of strategic goals is the reality of outsourcing. Outsourcing can be motivated by cost factors, a lack of in-house expertise or even a restructure at the bidding of a consultant or new executive. In many cases outsourcing impacts employees’ job security and may lower employee morale and engagement. In addition, many outsourcing decisions include individuals or companies that may operate in other countries, or even different regions of the same country with vastly different cultures and norms. This adds an additional layer for managers to consider. So how exactly are decisions to outsource made? Let’s take a look at one example:
