Assessment

• What are some of the variables associated with outsourcing legal services? Which major, or key, variable constitutes the driving force behind this practice?

• Do you consider legal services outsourcing a good practice in terms of cross-cultural communication and cross-cultural organizational structures and hierarchies? Why or why not?

• What other business processes or services might be good candidates for outsourcing? Why? How do these business processes and services compare to legal services in terms of potential outsourcing risks and benefits?

• What are some of the issues business managers should consider as they determine whether to outsource such services? Which of these issues are more or less important to a successful outcome than others? Why?

Support your analysis with references from the Capella University Library, globalEDGE, or other Internet sources.
