Accelerated Now:

Engineering your technology-driven future



Dave Reid and Cristene Gonzalez-Wertz discuss the next wave of accelerated change.





In these exciting but challenging times, it’s critical to capitalise on new opportunities and overcome heavy burdens.

Drive to those ends with three key actions. Create differentiated, strategic advantages by developing a deep understanding of industry and ecosystem economic patterns, and leveraging the software-defined, platform-driven world. Power intelligent, sustainable operations by minimising technical debt and optimising supply chains to transition into positive business growth. Manage favorable forward transitions by building agility in the workplace and adopting a strong posture to deal with ever-increasing cyber-threats.

DXC Leading Edge will explore these issues as the evolution of our Accelerated Now agenda. Our initial series covered the five pillars of change for business agility. Explore those topics in our section Thriving in the Accelerated Now (below).   




In the Accelerated Now, business and technology will jointly change according to business need, customer expectations or opportunity.
