Episode #95 // What should we outsource, when should we outsource, and how do we avoid the common pitfalls?
In the 90’s, outsourcing became all the rage, particularly in the IT world. But the principles behind it go back to the economic theory of comparative advantage, first proposed by David Ricardo over 200 years ago, in the early 19th century.
We explore some critical questions in this episode, like why you would want to outsource something, and what process you should go through to make a sensible decision. We also touch upon why a lot of outsourcing arrangements don’t turn out the way you had expected, and what the future of outsourcing looks like.
To help you work out whether you should outsource something or not, we've created a FREE PDF checklist for you, the 7 Reasons To Outsource (And 4 Reasons Not To), which you can download (for free) at www.yourceomentor.com/episode95.
