With profound and rapid changes taking place in the Outsourcing Services industry, what does the present and future look like for the sourcing advisory firms and those executives who manage relations with advisors. ISG estimates 30+ new Advisor Relations positions for 2018. One of the feeding grounds for Advisor Relations is Analyst Relations. Roles are morphing into “Influencer Relations” positions.
To this end, IIAR (International Institute of Analyst Relations) has created a Sourcing Advisory Relations (SAR) Working Group, led by Wendy Shlensky / VP Analyst and Advisor Relations, HGS (LinkedIn, @WLS26) and Ed Gyurko (LinkedIn, @edgyurko). The goal of this workgroup is to provide education and networking for analyst & advisor relations professionals.
To kick things off the SAR will host two teleconferences.
Don’t miss out, register today. Note this event is free for IIAR Members and is restricted to Advisor and Analyst Relations Professionals only. All attendees will need to register with a company email address and will also be required to identify themselves upon dialing in. IIAR non-members can pay £25 to join the call.
