Abstract
The issue of offshoring continues to prompt a wide range of emotions amongst corporate strategists and laypersons alike. This session will attempt to distill some of the myths and realities of what offshoring is, along with the pervasiveness of its usage. Questions discussed will include: which companies are offshoring, and for what purposes; where is offshoring most likely to occur; and who is most likely to benefit and be harmed by offshoring?
