EY-Parthenon: Navigating change. New realities, timeless lessons.

Join Andrea Guerzoni, EY-Parthenon Global Vice Chair, and Bill Achtmeyer, Parthenon Group Founder, discussing how a 30-year legacy was created. https://www.ey.com/en_gl/services/strategy/parthenon In this interview, moderated by James O’Dowd, EY-Parthenon explores its journey from the early roots to a 25,000-person global organization operating in more than 120 countries. The conversation explores how AI and GenAI are changing the pace of strategy work, while in the board room, the differentiator remains human judgement and trusted relationships. The conversation concludes on the future of consultants and the need for high EQ, the ability to team across cultures and time zones, and a blend of technology fluency and sector expertise. They also stress why consulting can’t be fully remote: the ability to read the room, body language, and client dynamics require being there in person.
