Who is the ceo of sapient

Sapient organization. This people-centric approach to digital business transformation will continue to evolve alongside the preferences of clients and their consumers. As the July story noted, this merger has been going on for some time and went through multiple delays, as many such large-scale projects tend to do. Publicis has also made several efforts to streamline the organization—the July story also noted triple-digit layoffs, and multiple parties reached out to us after it went live to state that the ultimate number of U.

It should be noted that SapientRazorfish employed more than 12, at the time, and the new entity includes 20, across 35 offices around the world.

According to sources close to the organization, more cuts came in recent weeks and primarily affected the creative side of the business. Razorfish came to life in as one of the original digitally-oriented agencies. As disruptive technologies and companies continue to impact consumer expectations, business environments are constantly changing. Organisations large and small are successfully responding by placing digital at the core of their businesses, effectively using holistic transformation to close the gap between what consumers expect and what their traditional business models can deliver.

Only through digital business transformation can organisations create exponential value by driving growth, increasing operational agility and effectiveness, and, ultimately, creating better experiences for customers.

At the start of — and less than one year into my tenure as global CEO — all of us became aware that coronavirus, or Covid, was spreading with preternatural speed across the globe: it is as great a human tragedy as most of us will ever experience. Our clients and our own companies were, before Covid, faced by geopolitical uncertainty and the need to adapt in a world of rapid and fundamental change. When we spoke about disruption, this is not what we had in mind.

What we do know is that coronavirus is profoundly affecting the way we behave: on how we interact socially, on our mobility, on how we consume and how we work. This change has all happened in a matter of weeks, and within those weeks we have begun to comprehend the knock-on effect on businesses and entire industry categories, their employees and, in turn, economies and financial markets. Coronavirus is illustrating our shared humanity in the most visceral way.

It shows that our similarities are greater than our differences. It is an experience that resonates across borders, and impacts individuals, small and large companies alike, and industries in their entirety. When we come out the other side of this, there will be a responsibility and, yes, an opportunity, to assess and define what business looks like in a post COVID world.

Where emerging technologies and disruptive business models were pushing organisations to digitally transform, coronavirus has forced the immediate adoption of new ways of working and of channels to connect with customers — the best of which will remain once the pandemic has gone.
