Case: Accenture
Accenture Strategy, a vast wing of the $70 billion professional services
company Accenture, is in the vanguard of responsible business. The firm
helps organizations, such as Unilever and most of the Fortune 500, pivot their
strategies to drive profit while delivering a positive economic, environmental
and social impact.
Such triple-bottom-line thinking is what gets the consultants juices flowing.
The sticking point is the circular economy a way of doing business that
tries to decouple economic growth from the overuse of resources. This
approach is one of the most disruptive forces as also a $4 trillion-plus market
opportunity.
5. Knowledge Management:
a) The traditional, procedural knowledge strategy is Codification which has
off-the-shelf type solutions. These are easier to communicate
extensively because the message is established, repetitive and already
refined. This can be done by less experienced staff, utilizing chiefly IT
resources. Example: Accenture
b) The more stylized consultancies, for example McKinsey - offer more
bespoke solutions and require experienced staff in more personalized
forums to communicate their features and potential. This knowledge
strategy is known as personalization and enables higher fees from smaller
teams with lower leverage ratios.
