In this podcast Ger Hussey (above right) interviews Simon Brown (above left) to draw on Simon's experience with Global Business Services (GBS) over the past 12 years.

Simon outlines his insights from his consulting work with The Coca Cola Company, Becton Dickinson and GKN Automotive.

This discussion between peers explores, through an HR lens, the business case, benefits, and learning points, together with the challenges and the watch-outs when designing, implementing, maintaining and running GBS.

To support the podcast a few pointers are available in the pdf download.

If you are on the GBS journey or thinking about starting one – like 75% of your peers according to this year's SSON industry survey (report out soon!) – then this podcast is for you!
