Accenture
This global campaign marked a rethinking of leadership at Accenture—a cultural shift in the company with a focus on the people aspects of leadership: values like caring, kindness and human connection. The initiative offers a credentialing program with coursework and training designed to develop empathetic leadership skills, which Accenture views as critical to advancing the company’s mission. The levels of engagement in the program have already exceeded expectations. Many existing and aspiring managers signed up for the credentialing program within the first three months of the rollout. More importantly, there’s been a heightened awareness of the importance of empathy and honest communication throughout the company.
