sharedserviceslink.com - November 2009 Newsletter

Dear Customer,

2010 got off to a promising start for most. You are probably feeling stretched as you can't remember the last time you had to deliver so much with such tight resource, but tiredness seems to be a non-issue as more change is coming your way. No, this is not your horoscope: this is the mood of the shared services market. 2010 is the Year of The Project Delivery. Find out why by reading this month's article on The 8 Must-Know Trends on Shared Services. This vital reading may help you cement a few of your own thoughts for the future. Our webinar programme is as rich as ever, so make sure you sign up to as many as possible, and if Purchase to Pay is a big focus for you this year, find out about our conference in June in London which I invite you to join.
