Beyond cost savings: The global footprint of innovation hubs

from McKinsey Talks Operations · host McKinsey & Company

Many organizations struggle with outdated workforce models, limited AI adoption, and a disconnect between their global capability centers (GCCs) and core business strategies. To overcome these challenges, a global operating model can create capability centers that are an integral part of an organization’ s operations. They function as a microcosm of the company, with leadership, talent, and innovation globally distributed to create a resilient, globally distributed workforce. In this episode of McKinsey Talks Operations, host Daphne Luchtenberg talks with Indy Banerjee, Senior Partner at McKinsey, and Jack Madrid, President and CEO of the IT and Business Process Association of the Philippines (IBPAP) about how organizations can adopt a global operating model approach by upskilling and right-skilling their talent pools, embedding AI, and fostering a culture of continuous innovation. What steps can your organization take to turn its GCC into an engine of innovation?
