Definition of Insourcing

Picture
Insourcing is when the boss (owner or management) delegates (gives) a job or promotion to someone already working for their company rather than hiring someone from outside the business to come in and do a job. According to the business dictionary the definition of insourcing is:
"Delegating a job to someone within a company, as opposed to someone outside of the company (outsourcing). One reason for insourcing to occur is if a company had previously outsourced a certain task, but was no longer satisfied with the work being done on that task, so the company could therefore insource the task and assign it to someone within the company who they believe will do a better job."
