In the second of our five-part video series on the Future of Customer Experience, Bronwyn van der Merwe, general manager APAC for Accenture Interactive's design service's business Fjord, discusses the 'Living Business' thesis with AdNews editor Rosie Baker.

The digital transformation of virtually everything requires businesses to transform and reinvent themselves as 'living businesses' which in turn requires leaders to inspire and effect the mindset change of those they lead, van der Merwe says.

"Changing people is a really difficult thing to do," she adds.

Living businesses have four key characteristics: personality, instinct, relationships and craft that van der Merwe expands in the video. She also extrapolates on the three key goals of a living business: to create outstanding employee experience, develop a customer-centric approach and foster a culture of innovation among all employees.

This video is part of the 'Future of Customer Experience' series in partnership with Accenture Interactive.
