Seis compañías del sector turístico han sido incluidas en el ranking “Las 100 mejores empresas para trabajar en 2025” en España, elaborado por Forbes. La clasificación, basada en encuestas anónimas, valora aspectos como la cultura corporativa, el desarrollo profesional o la conciliación. Las empresas destacadas son Ávoris, eDreams, Grupo Iberostar, Ilunion, Meliá Hotels International y Minor Hotels.Según el último Barómetro Turístico de Andersen Consulting, el gasto de los españoles en viajes internacionales aumentó un 18% en 2024, representando ya el 34% del total. Esta tendencia está impulsada por una nueva generación de viajeros más preparados tecnológica y lingüísticamente, así como por el papel clave de las agencias de viajes, especialmente en desplazamientos de medio y largo radio.La Confederación Española de Agencias de Viajes (CEAV) reunió a más de 100 profesionales del turismo en un workshop celebrado en Valladolid, donde más de 80 agentes de viajes conocieron las novedades de 30 expositores del sector. El evento forma parte del CEAV Profesional Tour 2025 y destacó la importancia de las agencias en la promoción de destinos como Marruecos, Alemania y Andalucía.La ruta aérea que conecta Roma-Fiumicino con Madrid-Barajas se sitúa en lo más alto del tráfico aéreo del continente. Con 1,32 millones de asientos previstos, según datos recopilados por Statista a partir del proveedor de inteligencia de viajes OAG, esta conexión se posiciona como la más transitada entre, desde o hacia Europa durante la temporada estival.

Dans ce nouvel épisode de Podcast-Expert, Alain Garnier reçoit un invité de marque, un pionnier du numérique au parcours hors norme : Francis Lelong Un invité qui est presque difficile à introduire tant son parcours dans le numérique ne ressemble à aucun autre : 

C'est une voix bien connue du conseil, mais c'est aujourd'hui une entrepreneuse au ton libre qui prend le micro : Sylvie Ouziel, cofondatrice de Blue Bridge, n'est pas une novice de la tech ni des grands groupes. Passée par Accenture, Munich Re, Allianz, le groupe chinois Envision et enfin Publicis, cette ingénieure formée chez Andersen Consulting revendique un parcours « d'extraterrestre » – expression utilisée à ses débuts en Allemagne, sans parler un mot de la langue, pour transformer une industrie qu'elle ne connaissait pas. Son obsession ? La technologie comme levier de transformation opérationnelle. Et désormais, place à l'IA générative.Son credo : l'IA ne se limite pas à ChatGPT, c'est un changement de paradigme pour les entreprises.D'où la création de Blue Bridge, un intégrateur d'un genre nouveau, qui veut faire le lien entre les promesses de l'IA et leur concrétisation dans les « tuyaux » des entreprises. « Ce qu'on voit en tant que consommateur – ChatGPT, Midjourney, etc. – donne une vision réductrice, dit-elle. Dans l'entreprise, il faut interfacer l'IA avec les ERP, les systèmes de logistique, les bases de données, les flux contractuels. » Blue Bridge se positionne comme un chaînon manquant, avec une promesse : un retour sur investissement rapide, grâce à une approche modulaire et des outils internes automatisés qui réduisent les coûts de mise en œuvre.La startup s'appuie sur les LLM existants, qu'elle intègre dans les systèmes de ses clients. « Nous ne facturons pas à l'usage, mais à la mise en place. Un agent IA qui impacte 1 000 collaborateurs, vous le payez une fois. » Une petite révolution dans le monde du conseil.Les cas d'usage ? Traitement automatisé de contrats d'assurance, extraction de règles, calcul d'indemnisations ou de rentabilité, génération de documents juridiques... Mais au-delà de la technologie, c'est tout un modèle économique que questionne Sylvie Ouziel : Le métier du conseil traditionnel – lent, coûteux, peu agile – vacille. Hébergé par Acast.

On this week's episode, MT's editorial team discusses which Big Four firms are on course to miss UK female partner goals, what CIOs want from consultants in 2025, and how a once-powerful name in consulting is making a comeback.We kick off this bumper consultancy episode with discussion of a story originally covered by the FT, which found that of the Big Four accounting firms, both EY and PwC are on track to miss their 2025 UK female partner targets. We also consider how gender imbalances might be impacting consulting firms' progress on pay parity, with an analysis of pay gap data collected as part of the process of compiling MT's inaugural Top 100 Management Consultancies list last year.What do chief information officers want from consultants? That's the question explored by Jon Bance in a recent piece for MT. He argues that CIOs increasingly demand more from external advisors, whom they expect to become fully immersed in their business, becoming a part of its culture and driving teams forward from within, while leveraging soft skills to build meaningful long-term relationships.Anyone who follows the consultancy sector will probably have heard the news by now: Andersen Consulting is making a comeback. The once-powerful name in the business will return to the sector after 25 years of dormancy. We discuss a piece by Paul Simpson that explores how the brand, once part of collapsed accounting firm Arthur Andersen, might navigate the considerable challenges in the market.

Dave Skena remembers having his first Krispy Kreme doughnut at age 13, and even back then, he knew this company wasn't like the others. In college, he thought he was going to be an economist, but through his first job at Andersen Consulting (now Accenture), he realized marketing was where he really wanted to be. After going back to school, he began his new career at Kraft Foods, then went to PepsiCo for over eight years, where he led brands such as Lay's, Ruffles, SunChips, Tostitos, and Lay's Dips. He left CPG when he became Chief Marketing Officer at Ruby Tuesdays, where he helped them transition from public to private. Then moved on to his current role as Global Chief Brand Officer at Krispy Kreme. As a 20-year "performance-driven" innovator and marketer, Dave has flipped the script regarding traditional marketing in the category for an underdog brand by putting a premium on insights and creative-driven earned media strategies.In this episode, Alan and Dave discuss the uniqueness of the Krispy Kreme brand being both accessible and premium with the omnichannel hybrid model, where their brand promise of freshness is a top priority. Dave is a performance marketer, meaning his goal is to get the most out of every marketing dollar spent. Rather than focusing on the top of the funnel, he is constantly monitoring the performance of each move his team makes through A/B testing. Earned media, collaborations, and participation in culture are the top ways Krispy Kreme increases traffic and awareness. Power partnerships with big brands such as Oreo, Chips Ahoy, Herseys, and Good Humor are a win-win for all involved and compound the joy for consumers. Dave says "happiness is not a fixed pie", meaning there is plenty to go around. When it comes to capturing cultural moments, the Pandemic gave Krispy Kreme the perfect backdrop to counter with their extremely popular Acts of Joy, such as free donuts for all healthcare workers, graduates, and people who were vaccinated. By capitalizing on unity, Dave and his team are making news, reinforcing a culture of generosity, and driving sales at the same time.In this episode, you'll learn:How Dave's career prepared him perfectly for Krispy Kreme's omnichannel hybrid modelThe keys to authentically capturing cultural momentsWhat performance marketing is and how Dave maximizes his marketing budgetKey Highlights: [02:14] Dave's first Krispy Kreme Doughnut[05:30] From Economics to Doughnuts[09:35] What's unique about Krispy Kreme?[13:10] The key to capturing cultural moments[19:40] Partnerships and collaborations to increase joy (and sales)[24:00] Delivered Fresh Daily: getting into retail[25:45] Maximizing marketing and investments[30:45] Using credibility to multiply happiness[33:00] Being thrown into the deep end and learning you can swim[36:20] Marketing is the best thing you can do with a dollar.[37:50] Capitalize on unity[39:45] It's all about AI, but not in the way you thinkLooking for more?Visit our website for links to resources mentioned in this episode and ways to connect with the guest!

Stephane Eard es de origen francés, pero su infancia transcurrió entre Italia y Brasil. En propias palabras de Stephane, “aprendió muy temprano que la vida tiene muchos hitos: cambió de carrera muchas veces hasta que cumplió los 45 años. Estuvo en el mundo corporativo con Andersen Consulting y Gemini Consulting. Durante 15 años fue un alto ejecutivo de Edenred, ocupando varias posiciones, entre las que destaca haber sido General Manager de una unidad de negocios en Europa y director de transformación digital del Grupo. En 2017 Stephane decide dar un giro a su vida. Fue un momento complejo para él y lo expresa diciendo: “Nunca estamos realmente preparados para el desafío de decidir por uno mismo”. Durante 8 meses él sintió que estaba atravesando un desierto, debido a una dura situación de burnout que tuvo que afrontar. Stephane regresó a Francia hace 5 años y decidió comenzar de nuevo. Poco a poco fue viendo como el vacío y el miedo inicial, se transformaron en una energía fantástica para desarrollar nuevos emprendimientos. Esto gracias al networking que fue construyendo. En la actualidad evalúa como llevar una vida híbrida: ser parte de una empresa, al estilo clásico, o permanecer como consultor libre. Lo que si tiene muy claro es que para él lo más importante es tener su libertad de elección y de pensamiento. En su vida como “electrón libre”, Stephan ha participado en múltiples empresas: consultor en Innose, senior advisor en Artefact consulting y Balthazar Agency, Chief Sales Officer de Liberacta (solución de marketing en blockchain) y mentor en Evolt.io. Stephan habla 5 idiomas: francés, inglés, español, portugues y ruso.Recuerda que ahora puedes escuchar Cuentos Corporativos en vivo.

"I co-founded what has become EDGE for gender and intersectional equity back in 2009, and at that time workplace gender and intersectional equity were still very much seen as a societal issue rather than a business issue. Organizations were asking themselves if it's within their role to tackle these issues of equity, diversity, and inclusion in the workplace, or if they are the mere recipients of what is going on in societies, following the beliefs around what men and women should be doing at work and at home.So at that time we wanted to contribute to this transition from making gender and intersectional equity a business issue and help organizations see that how they manage their talent and how they are able to attract, develop, motivate, and retain diverse talent is a key component of their sustainable business success."Aniela Unguresan is Co-founder of EDGE Certification, the leading global assessment methodology and business certification standard for gender equality.

So for organizations that are present across many different countries and many different continents, there will be one backbone which will be gender, the binary definition, to which they will be adding other aspects of the broader diversity spectrum based on the specificities of the countries of operations. For example, L'Oréal in the U.S., they look at the intersection between gender, race, and ethnicity. We have organizations in Europe that are very often looking at the intersection between age, gender, and sexual orientation. In Southeast Asia, sexual orientation and working with a disability are definitely emerging topics.So allowing ourselves this flexibility in saying we have a solid backbone - which is the one that can be legally measured and tracked across all geographies - which is the gender binary. And on this, we will be building this intersectional view with other beautiful characteristics that compose us as individuals. Having this flexibility allowed organizations such as L'Oréal, but then also some other institutions that we are working with within the UN system or international finance institutions, such as the IMF or the World Bank, to add different intersectional lenses to their gender binary approach."https://edge-cert.orgwww.creativeprocess.infowww.oneplanetpodcast.org

"I think that one of the things that it's very important is not to let anybody decide or limit what you want to be, what you want to study, the kind of career that you want to pursue, how you want to identify yourself. Nobody, no institution, no culture, no society should limit you in your ability to do so. And I think that we live in a world of choices, and choices are available, and information to make choices that suit us is available. And that will create more transparency, and that will create more accountability. So staying alert, staying aware, and staying informed – and push back when something is not as we would wish it to be, or it doesn't feel right to us."Aniela Unguresan is Co-founder of EDGE Certification, the leading global assessment methodology and business certification standard for gender equality.

Nobody, no institution, no culture, no society should limit you in your ability to do so. And I think that we live in a world of choices, and choices are available, and information to make choices that suit us is available. And that will create more transparency, and that will create more accountability. So staying alert, staying aware, and staying informed – and push back when something is not as we would wish it to be, or it doesn't feel right to us."https://edge-cert.orgwww.creativeprocess.infowww.oneplanetpodcast.org

"I co-founded what has become EDGE for gender and intersectional equity back in 2009, and at that time workplace gender and intersectional equity were still very much seen as a societal issue rather than a business issue. Organizations were asking themselves if it's within their role to tackle these issues of equity, diversity, and inclusion in the workplace, or if they are the mere recipients of what is going on in societies, following the beliefs around what men and women should be doing at work and at home.So at that time we wanted to contribute to this transition from making gender and intersectional equity a business issue and help organizations see that how they manage their talent and how they are able to attract, develop, motivate, and retain diverse talent is a key component of their sustainable business success."Aniela Unguresan is Co-founder of EDGE Certification, the leading global assessment methodology and business certification standard for gender equality.

"For a very long time, the tech industry was publishing their numbers year after year, and the numbers stayed very much the same. And they were throwing their hands in the air and saying, 'Well, okay, we are measuring. We are publishing the numbers, numbers look bad. There's nothing we can do about it.' So there was transparency, but there was not the accountability of yes, there is something we can do about those numbers. It might take longer, and the progress might not be as fast as we can do, but there is something we can do about it. And here is the place we would start. But when the stakeholders start to have a voice then that accountability is created for organizations to move from intention to action and from action to impact."Aniela Unguresan is Co-founder of EDGE Certification, the leading global assessment methodology and business certification standard for gender equality.

“I have a human first philosophy. Ultimately maths is the easier part of the equation, humans are hard”, says Amy. Amy shares her background as a management consultant with Andersen Consulting (now Accenture) and joining Principal almost 21 years ago.  “I had a leader and a mentor, people around me had belief in me”, as Amy shares her rise to the c-suite and her biggest achievement. Amy talks about her reaction to being overlooked and how she reacts to negativity. “I don't block all of it out. I say ‘wait a minute, there's a market need. Someone, some day is going to fill it. Why on earth could it not be us.' My motivation is more externally focussed.” Sharing how Principal are using tech and digital, Amy comments, “Innovation often looks at the beginning or the end of processes, at customer acquisition or claims. We've been focussing on those middle processes – administration and servicing.” Amy talks about future challenges for insurance executives and the industry, urging us not to go back to pre-pandemic normal. She explains the characteristics Principal seek when looking for high-performing talent as well as her recruitment frustrations.  “We've been mathematicians more than story-tellers. We have plenty of technicians in the industry, we're light on people who understand the human experience.” Connect with Amy on https://www.linkedin.com/in/amy-friedrich-572270/ (LinkedIn) or find out more about https://www.principal.com/ (Principal Financial Group).
