Shared Services Client-Advisor Relationships Definition
Shared services client-advisor relationships refers to the nature of interactions, communications and expectations between the shared service centre (advisors) and internal customers (clients). Relationship management is sometimes based on service level agreements (SLA), which define the scope and governance of the shared services parameters and performance levels. However, leading organisations tend to favour flexible partnership models, which are more responsive to changing business needs and more conducive to building trust (Herbert & Lu, 2013).
