The challenge

Clients come to Accenture with big questions, and today most of them involve AI: how to ramp up production, raise productivity or run operations more efficiently. Answering them means bringing the right content, experts and partners together, across teams, markets, ecosystems, and regions that rarely work in one place.
 

My approach

  1. Bridging China and the world
    As part of the China Bridge program, I connected innovations from China with Accenture teams and clients worldwide, working closely with the China market unit. I also manage an internal Global China community of 100+ members.
     

  2. Designing the client journey.
    I joined the Munich center shortly after it opened, set up its operating processes and guided an intern. Drawing on service design, I added new touchpoints to each visit, from personalized welcome screens to room atmosphere. For every engagement, I aligned the goal with the account team, then curated teams, solutions and ecosystem partners around it and orchestrated the day.
     

  3. Shaping a global network.
    My entry in Accenture’s company-wide innovation contest, a simple flow matching the right content and experts to the right opportunity, won third place in the region. This led me to the global task force shaping the Global Connected Innovation Center. For over eight months, I was one of three global testers of a new innovation tool, representing EMEA alongside the Americas and Asia-Pacific and feeding each iteration back to the development team in India.
     

  4. Building physical AI.
    Since January 2026, I support the global Managing Director in shaping the new fiscal-year strategy as the team grew from Next Gen Robotics into Physical AI. I co-develop proposals, run weekly and global team reporting, and manage a community of 450+ members.
