Literature Review about Training Outsourcing
Literature Review about Training Outsourcing Training Outsourcing has become a very popular amongst the training cycles during the last decade. A recent study appearing in Fortune Magazine (May, 2004) showed that outsourcing among U.S. companies is up 50% from four years ago and growing 15%-20% annually. Top functions for outsourcing include payroll, HR management, customer service, call centres, technology, and now corporate training. In a 2003 survey conducted by research firm IDC training emerged as the number one candidate for outsourcing. 1 Outsourcing is defined as the assignment of a business process to an external provider. Thus outsourcing providers have been called Business Process Outsourcing (BPO). However outsourcing should be differentiated from outasking where the latter means assignment of certain tasks only to outside providers. It is worth at this point analysing the advantages and disadvantages of outsourcing. Outsourcing providers and academic writers seem to agree on the fact that the major advantages of outsourcing are short term, i.e. cost cutting and long term i.e. freeing up time for strategic decisions. Nearly 48% of outsourcing decisions are made to reduce operational costs. The reason why outsourcing providers offer services at a reduced cost is that the outsourcing firm performs the same function on a much larger scale and therefore has more

What is Change Management
What is Change Management? Organizational change can be described as the process of moving away from a current condition to realize some future state. Change management involves managing the process of achieving this future state. 1 (Nickols, 2004) Change can be viewed from two vantage points, that of the people making the changes and that of the people experiencing the changes. 2 In the top-down, or strategic viewpoint associated with management, the focus is on technical issues such as the investment required, the processes for implementing the change, how soon the change can be realized, and the outcome. In the bottom-up viewpoint of the employee, the focus is on what the change means to the individual, how they can cope with the change, and also how management can assist them through the transition. In this context, effective change management should be able to help individuals evolve from negative feelings such as fear and anxiety towards positive feelings about the changes being made. 3 Effective change management deals with diagnosing problems and determining an alternative that involves changing the organizational structure or processes. It also identifies and deals with the individual responses to change that can hinder the success of the project. To understand change management better, we need to understand the various models and strategies that managers

Supply Chain Management (SCM)
Introduction Supply Chain Management is increasingly becoming an important aspect of any company's strive for efficiency and cost saving. Unfortunately, many of today's managers have misinterpreted the term to only withhold the activity of good management of suppliers. However, for a company to be cost efficient and productive the concept of supply chain management has to be thoroughly understood and the savings and risk reductions stemming from it have to be acknowledged. Supply Chain Management (SCM) is increasingly used as the new "buzz word" and managers proclaim its importance in business success. However, research has shown that although the majority of purchase managers may believe it to be of great importance, firms are not as committed to the concept as them might lead others to believe (Spekman, Kamauff and Myhr 1998, Tan, Kannan, Handfield and Ghosh 1999 and Smock, 2003). This pm will offer an introduction to the topic and present possible reasons for why the managers are "talking the talk, but not walking the walk". The Concept of Supply Chain Management Supply Chain Management refers to the process of how products are designed, sourced through an often-complex network, manufactured and distributed from raw material to the end customer (Smock, 2003). Uncertainty Uncertainty leads to increased inventory and costs, which could be invested in other projects
