I believe that DEI and ESG has a "corporate optics" component that we can't deny.

They will require leadership that shows desire to advance underrepresented groups. That doesnt mean you can't be deputy "chief" or other top ranking title if you are a white male.

To deny this happens is as absurd as OP complaining about it.

Any Accenture Interactive account folks on what makes a successful Account Lead at AI. I've been approached for a "Digital Transformation Executive" role, but my knowledge of digital transformation/CX/BX is cursory at best.

I crashed and burned pretty hard at Publicis Sapient (now back industry-side) and am wary of going back into the digital transformation space. However, the AI folks insist my general business background, MBA and brand strategy experience will translate to success.
