How  to  introduce  outsourcing  to  your  current  staff

ü Facilitate  a  discussion  around  tasks  not  rolesü Look  to  establish  the  tasks  that  are  repetitive  and  holding  staff  back from  adding  more  valueü Create  a  task  plan  and  discuss  the  skill  sets  requiredü Identify  the  new  tasks  that  are  high  value  that  your  Australian  staff  will  take  onü Choose  a  department  or  function  of  the  business  for  a  proof  of  concept  trialü From  the  trial  share  successes  and  learning  with  the  rest  of  the  business,  then  extend  trial  to  other  

departmentsü Build  relationships  with  outsourced  staff  just  as  you  would  with  office  based  staff,  build  a  team  culture
