Assessment of GBS Evolution Personas

Is your GBS organization evolving to create superior value?

Introduction

This assessment will help you identify your GBS organization’s persona and indicate what it will take to evolve the persona to a desired future state in order to deliver higher value. This assessment does not focus on the delivery capabilities in the outsourced portion of the GBS model. The survey asks questions at two levels for both current and desired future state:
  • Overall GBS level
  • Function-level (for up to two functions of your choice)
What will you get?

We will share a personalized complimentary analysis with you within 10 days of you taking the survey. The report will include:
  • Identification of your GBS organization’s persona based on Everest Group’s GBS Evolution Personas Framework
  • Scores on 4 capabilities and 17 sub-capabilities that define GBS personas. Four dimensions critical to defining GBS personas are:
    • Vision and strategy
    • Strategic operating model
    • Service excellence
    • Talent model
  • A set of actionable recommendations to help your GBS organization evolve to the desired future state
