Why should leaders care about a #DigitalCore? Because whether it’s #GenerativeAI or the next new thing, a digital core is the engine that enables companies to capture the value of new technologies and grow through continual change. Here’s how to get started: https://accntu.re/4eXVqNd [Video Description: Background quickly switches between various purple, blue and pink gradients while rotating lines animate toward the center to connect with a circle and create a shape that represents a digital core. In the circle, text reads: “Digital Core: The Why” The digital core folds into itself and reappears with text that reads: “Generative AI is the latest disruptive technology reinventing every facet of business.” The digital core shape minimizes and disappears. Text animates in the middle of the frame that reads: “83% of leading companies are speeding up their reinvention efforts.” Various colored lines speed across the frame from left to right with text that reads: “The only problem? Expectations for gen AI are exceeding their capabilities.” The lines slow and fall to the bottom of the frame. On a blank background, text reads: “So, what’s the answer to this era of disruption?” A light bulb icon appears above. The digital core shutters inward and reappears with text that reads: “A reinvention-ready digital core” Text continues to animate that reads: “It’s a critical capability that helps companies become agile and adaptable so they can thrive when faced with change.” The digital core shape minimizes and becomes the Accenture Greater Than logo.]
