Achieve Sustainable Cost Reduction

To negotiate the past few years’ volatile economic environment, organizations across all sectors pursued aggressive cost reduction and cash flow management initiatives-including reducing staff and IT costs and freezing discretionary spending wherever they could, as quickly as they could. Now, many are resuming their focus on growth.

Are you prepared to reverse recession-driven cost reduction strategies while maintaining an appropriate level of ongoing attention to cost optimization?
