“I feel I'm probably the luckiest guy on the planet to lead Accenture.”

“Now, given the increasing importance of artificial intelligence, automation, machine learning, and other innovative technologies, we are evolving Accenture Digital to be even more relevant to our clients and drive even greater differentiation in the marketplace.”

“I feel very good about our performance and the momentum we have in our business, which clearly reflect the value of the services we provide to our clients each and every day.”

“We have the largest digital design studio in the world.”

“I had good coaches and mentors. They helped me a lot, and I trusted them when they tapped on my shoulder to move to the next level. And maybe I've been smart enough to always say yes more than no when I've been proposed a new and challenging jobs.”

“We are always looking ahead to anticipate what next, and our unique innovation architecture enables us to take an innovation-led approach to help our clients invent the future.”

“I want our future leaders to know what's possible and to be part of a world where diversity and gender equality aren't special programs but the natural way of operating.”

“People want to know on an ongoing basis, 'Am I doing right? Am I moving in the right direction? Do you think I'm progressing?' Nobody's going to wait for an annual cycle to get that feedback.”

“The Accenture hybrid class solution for Microsoft Azure will provide a new wave for our clients to transform to a truly enterprise wide hybrid cloud environment.”

“I don't need to move my body. I need to move my ideas.”

“Even in mature economies, digital's benefits to society are substantial.”

“Accenture has long been a champion of inclusion and diversity and, specifically, gender balance at every level of our organization, including our board of directors.”

“We have to continue to build on our strengths and remain successful.”

“I could spend all my time on a plane visiting multiple countries, and I would never visit enough.”

“Do you want an interesting job? Yes. Do you want a balanced life? Yes. And to make a contribution as well? Of course.”

“Increasingly, we are embedding artificial intelligence into the core of our clients' businesses across every function and process.”

“We are proactively training and upscaling thousands of people in key areas such as cloud, artificial intelligence, and robotics.”

“At Accenture, we are visibile, and I feel when you are visible - when people are watching you - you need to speak up.”

“In Dublin, we open The Dock, our new multidisciplinary innovation R&D and incubation hub where all elements of our innovation architecture come to life. The Dock is a launch pad for our more than 200 researchers to innovate with clients and acquisition partners with a particular focus on artificial intelligence.”

“Our approach to continuously investing in the scales and capabilities of our people helps us meet the needs of our clients and enhances our ability to attract the very best talent in our industry.”
