Shared services centers (SSCs) are a cornerstone of operational excellence, enabling businesses to drive efficiency and scale effectively.

Modern SSCs have experienced a large shift, moving away from just achieving transactional cost savings to becoming strategic business partners. Shared service organizations look to comprehensively add value across multiple factors, such as user experience, cost-effectiveness, service performance, and risk management.

However, building a modern SSC requires practical strategies tailored to today’s challenges. Keeping up with rapid technological advancements, global socio-economic instability, and tackling resistance to change are just a few obstacles leaders face when establishing an SSC.

Join us if you are ready to break down the “complexity” of establishing an SSC, as experts from K&B Global leverage decades of experience, highlighting best practices and lessons learned from successful SSC implementations. Let us skip the “why” and focus on the “how-to”, as we focus on the most crucial aspects of setting up a successful SSC:

Strategic Location Selection: Understand the critical factors to consider when choosing a region, with a focus on the unique advantages of Latin America for cost efficiency and talent access.

Scalable Process Design: Learn how to design frameworks that not only streamline operations but also adapt seamlessly to support future growth.

• Change Management Essentials: Gain practical strategies for ensuring smooth transitions, aligning stakeholders, and minimizing disruption during the setup or optimization of your shared services center.

Whether you are new to shared services or a veteran looking to optimize your current approach, this webinar provides clear, actionable steps to help you get started. So, are you ready to take action?
