Corporate innovation program report. Get going Successful innovation programs are kinetic—that is, they are less focused on theoretical concepts, and more on traction and concrete outcomes.3 They carry a bias toward movement and forward progress.
In turn, the data would suggest that those interested in improving their own business outcomes ought to themselves pivot from talk to walk. Go now Our survey suggests that the presence of a formal innovation program pays clear dividends. Compared to the average, high-growth companies are twice as likely to have a leading innovation capability. The interpretation here isn’t exactly rocket science: It’s better to have an innovation program than not, and it’s better to have a mature program than a nascent one.
Go big More than 300 years ago, Isaac Newton explained that Force = Mass x Acceleration, pioneering the idea that the force of an impact is a function of not just velocity, but of heft. Endemic to this “go big” theme are biases toward clarity, commitment, and accountability. Report: Supply chain risk insights annual intelligence report. 2021 CEO Priorities Survey. Peace with the pandemic?
Much has happened in the four months since the Summer 2021 edition of the Fortune/Deloitte CEO Survey. CEOs have taken note of both new and enduring challenges, but they seem generally undeterred from their mandate to drive growth and attract and retain talent. When asked in June 2021 if CEOs believe that the business effects of the pandemic would largely be over by the end of 2021, they were almost evenly divided. A slim majority said yes. Slightly less than half said no. Four months later, no doubt with the Delta variant top of mind, CEOs have adjusted their expectations. Even so, a strong majority of CEOs continue to have a bullish outlook, with only a minor downsizing in expectations for growth.
Research Report: Human Agility in the Now of Work. The 2021 State of Digital Transformation. In this year’s State of Digital Transformation report, our goal is to identify the key differences between the businesses who succeeded at digital transformation, and those who were still struggling.
We surveyed 587 executives from the US, Europe and China, across a range of industries to highlight not only their current digital capabilities, but the key investments and choices they made that got them to where they are. By separating the responses of high performers and average performers, we identified the key characteristics of companies that successfully met their transformation goals.
This report serves as a benchmark for what digital maturity looks like in 2021 and charts a path forward for businesses who are looking to thrive in the next wave of digital transformation initiatives.

2020 Global Digital Fluency Study. Being digital is an imperative for survival Almost overnight, organizations worldwide had to move the majority of their workforces and operations offsite due to the pandemic.
This feat would not have been possible without digital technology. Digital transformation has been a priority for companies in recent years, with talk about managing change, equipping workers with digital skills and moving to the cloud. Today, this move is no longer an aspiration. Being digital has become an imperative for survival. Report: Bespoke for billions: Digital meets physical Creating human experiences at scale.

Recovery will be a long-haul flight Aerospace companies navigated a turbulent 2020, to say the least.
There’s no assurance of clear skies in 2021, but the forecast is improving as governments begin to ease restrictions and air travel regains momentum. According to Accenture’s Commercial Aerospace Insight Report, executives are cautiously optimistic about the future. While 40% still see the outlook as challenging in the next 6 months, 50% expect to see growth in the next year. We predict that global commercial aerospace revenues will increase 9% YoY in 2021, but even that lift would leave the global industry down 15% vs 2019. State of the Global Workplace Report. The top technology trends. Research Report: The future of work: A hybrid work model.
It’s a question many are asking as the collective call to reimagine how and where we work is strong.
Our Accenture Future of Work Study 2021 of more than 9,000 workers around the world discovered that most people want a hybrid model, where they sometimes work remotely and sometimes go onsite. Why is hybrid so appealing? It brings together the best of both worlds. Those who had a hybrid work model during COVID-19 had better mental health, stronger work relationships and were more likely to feel Net Better Off as a result of working for their organizations. They also experienced less burnout than those who worked entirely onsite or entirely remotely. We also found that 25% of respondents worked fully onsite throughout the pandemic and are likely to remain onsite, whatever their personal preferences may be.
While optimizing remote work is a priority for many companies, we need to reimagine onsite work life as well. It’s not about place, it’s about potential. Business Futures 2021: Signals of Business Change. Why does it matter?
Breaking the physical limits of their supply chains enables organizations to do more with less, and thereby meet customers’ growing expectations for order fulfillment in a cost-efficient way.

Report: The impact of agility: How to shape your organization to compete.
Special Report Infographic: Getting agile transformations right Agility is on everyone’s lips—online searches for “agile transformation” yield around 100 million hits, and the stories of well-known pioneers circulate widely.
But is this just hype, or are there real benefits to be gained? Is agility just noise from the IT department, or an opportunity that merits serious attention from the top team? And if pursuing agility yields benefits, what is the recipe for success? To find the answers, we conducted a McKinsey Global Survey that reached 2,190 respondents across industries and geographies. The four global forces breaking all the trends. In the Industrial Revolution of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, one new force changed everything.
Today our world is undergoing an even more dramatic transition due to the confluence of four fundamental disruptive forces—any of which would rank among the greatest changes the global economy has ever seen. Compared with the Industrial Revolution, we estimate that this change is happening ten times faster and at 300 times the scale, or roughly 3,000 times the impact. Although we all know that these disruptions are happening, most of us fail to comprehend their full magnitude and the second- and third-order effects that will result. Much as waves can amplify one another, these trends are gaining strength, magnitude, and influence as they interact with, coincide with, and feed upon one another.
Together, these four fundamental disruptive trends are producing monumental change. 1. Office of the Director of National Intelligence - Global Trends. Renaissance of Democracies In 2040, the world is in the midst of a resurgence of open democracies led by the United States and its allies. Rapid technological advancements fostered by public-private partnerships in the United States and other democratic societies are transforming the global economy, raising incomes, and improving the quality of life for millions around the globe. A World Adrift In 2040, the international system is directionless, chaotic, and volatile as international rules and institutions are largely ignored by major powers such as China, regional players, and nonstate actors. Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development countries are plagued by slower economic growth, widening societal divisions, and political paralysis.
Office of the Director of National Intelligence - Global Trends. 2021 Chief Strategy Officer Survey. While Strategy executives have traditionally gravitated to more “familiar” areas such as long-term strategic planning, market intelligence, and, in many cases, M&A, organizations are increasingly looking to the corporate Strategy function to lead digital and cost transformation efforts. Strategy executives are eager to play a bigger role, yet don’t always feel equipped to lead these discussions and struggle with the balance between near-term and long-term expectations. The CSO path to 360:As for all members of the C-suite, tensions between short- and long-term priorities existed long before the chief strategy officer role had an official title. The pandemic has placed new and unexpected demands on CSOs. As the circumstances continue to pressure corporate strategists to take a 360-degree view of their roles, how can CSOs expand their sphere of influence in intentional, appropriate, and impactful ways?
