Accenture CEO Julie Sweet Says New Brand Campaign Is About Embracing Change
Content: Accenture’s pandemic-era activity hasn’t been all positive. In August, the company laid off around 25,000 employees, or about 5% of its global workforce of 500,000. However, the company has continued to beat its earnings estimates, and in the second half of the fiscal year, the company grew market share at four times the market average. “We actually met or exceeded our (revised) guidance,” Sweet says. “ Just think about that: Despite Covid, we still landed in the guidance...and on top of that many of our competitors did not give guidance. I gave guidance nine days after the pandemic was declared and we hit that guidance. I gave it again in Q4 and we were within that guidance.” Follow me on Twitter or LinkedIn . Send me a secure tip .
