Clarity around the outcome of next week’s U.S. elections, much more so than clarity on the precise path of interest rate reductions, is the number one factor that has (and should continue to) dictate the path forward on M&A activity. The theme is consistent across both our corporate and private capital clients. #mergersandacquisitons #deals #transactionadvisory

I thought I'd reshare this article on how to take volatility out of complex program execution because we've just finished up a great project with a company struggling with this very issue. While the subject of the article is Tech Implementation, the same analysis holds true for complex engineering development programs. Increasing pressure and hours on a team hoping that will turn things around is never as useful as understanding what I term the 'root causes of the root causes'. What's structurally and fundamentally the issue, and that needs to be fixed before any effective progress can be made. The last suggestion is often the one reached for when all else has gone wrong - 'seeking an independent perspective'. Don't be afraid to ask for help or an outside perspective (either from an internal or external expert), it's often easier for them to see the wood for the trees. https://lnkd.in/ebcPAdCs Great article Jochen Gottschalk Les Viszlai Tim Gray ! #engineering #complexprograms #turnaround #tech

I am so excited to be featured in IBM’s AI in Action 2024 report. This ground-breaking report shows that across industries: 💹 ~30% of AI Leaders report a greater than 50% improvement in revenue growth rate and profit margins attributable to their AI initiatives. Full report here: https://lnkd.in/g2xxq-na It's a must read! 🧠 The best piece of advice I can give to anyone wanting to be an AI Leader—or to those who want to keep that competitive edge—is to identify use cases that prioritize high impact (even if messy) instead of convenience. It’s tempting to start an AI journey with low hanging fruits and broad productivity, but Leaders focus on end-to-end workflows with a combination of AI, GenAI & automation. 🏆 The champions needs to come from within the teams that own the workflows vs. AI being done to them by an elite AI squad It’s your chance to make a messy flow smart. With so much chatter about AI happening all the time, the AI in Action 2024 report cuts through the noise and helps distinguish the hype from what’s genuinely actionable right now.

Thank you, Mass Technology Leadership Council and McKinsey & Company Boston, for hosting engaging discussions this morning on AI and workforce strategy. My Russell Reynolds Associates colleague, Harpreet Khurana, and Carol Meyers shared great nuggets of wisdom for investors, executives, and their boards: "AI is not a spectator sport; you have to invest and be in the game.” “Boards need to ensure that with new appointments they are bringing forward thinking leaders who - while not AI experts necessarily - have seen transformation and can ask management teams the right questions about where the business is going in a world of AI." #AI #workforce #executiveleadership
