In the latest episode of Climb into Consulting, Nick is joined by Andrew Zimmerman, CEO of Journey. It’s safe to say that Andrew’s had a fascinating career at the cutting edge of consulting. He was responsible for launching Accenture’s new business division, better known today as Accenture Interactive, he turned around the leading global design agency Frog, not once, but twice, and he’s now running one of the world’s first consultancies focused on tackling the challenges of customer experience in Web 3.0, Journey. But Andrew’s story isn’t just one of hard charging corporate success. It’s a journey of self reflection and self discovery that’s lead him to places that he never thought he’d go and shows the power of understanding who you are and bringing your true self to your professional as well as your personal life. In this compelling conversation, Nick and Andrew explore this fascinating career journey so far. They focus on the key lessons he’s learnt along the way, including: - The personal journey he’s been on over the last 10 years and how a trip to Glastonbury changed his life. - How he successfully led Frog not once, but twice, and the secrets to his success in turning the business around both times. - Why his early start up experience was critical to his success with Accenture New Business and what consultancies can learn from the start up mentality. - And we talk about his latest venture, Journey, why he launched the business and how they’re helping global brands to navigate the metaverse. Whether you’re early in your career and looking for the confidence to bring your true self to work, or maybe you’re at the top of your firm, but you’re still not feeling fulfilled. Andrew’s advice in this episode is going to really help you. We hope you enjoy the show!
