Challenge #3: Unrealistic Expectations Don't be surprised and disappointed when deadlines aren't met if you set unrealistic project completion times.
How to handle it Take into consideration the length of time needed to complete projects. Ask yourself the following - does this need a lot of research? how many team members should be involved to finish this project on time? can they handle this project along with their other tasks and responsibilities?
Challenge #4: Cultural Concerns When you outsource, you are faced with two types of cultural differences - corporate and country-specific. You may not share the same vision, same work ethic, or same manner of communication.
How to handle it Choose an offshore provider that shares a similar corporate culture and choose an offshore location that matches your country's culture. Inform onshore and offshore staff of the culture and norm you want to set in the office like how to address each other or how to handle misunderstandings.
