Leading global advisory firm Alsbridge, Inc. today announced that its Managing Director, Chip Wagner, has been elected to the “G6” panel for the 15^th Annual North American Shared Services & Outsourcing Week conference.

Wagner, who has more than 20 years of experience in professional services, IT outsourcing and business process outsourcing, will contribute an unbiased perspective on outsourcing, shared services, and hybrid solutions.

Alsbridge is the sole sourcing advisor on the panel, which consists of several senior executives from outsourcing service providers.

The panel will be moderated by shared services and outsourcing thought leader, Deborah Kops, Managing Principal of sourchingcharge.com and will feature the viewpoints of some of the industry’s top senior executive and sourcing authorities including:

• Chip Wagner, Managing Director, Alsbridge
• Kevin Campbell, Group Chief Executive of Technology, Accenture
• Peter Allen, President, Global Sales & Marketing, Computer Sciences Corporation
• Tiger Tyagarajan, Chief Operating Officer, Genpact
• Ritesh Idnani, Chief Operating Officer, Infosys BPO
• Abid Ali Neemuchwala, Vice President, Tata Consultancy Services

“The G6 panel is a group of experienced and renowned industry players whose discussions will stimulate thought about the state of the economy and the role shared services, cloud computing, and sourcing will have on its recovery,” says Ben Trowbridge, CEO of Alsbridge, Inc. “We’re delighted to join such a strong and accomplished group of panelists.”

“The sluggish recovery of the global economy is unlikely to yield sufficient revenue growth in 2011 to drive desired profits for many companies,” says Wagner. “Since most companies have nearly exhausted the usual and customary cost reduction activities, now is the time for focused changes in your shared services and sourcing strategies that can impact the top and bottom lines.”

The Shared Services and Outsourcing Network (SSON) is the largest and most established community of shared services and outsourcing professionals. The SSON’s 15^th Annual Shared Services Week is the largest annual gathering of industry professionals in the world.
