Accenture Report: Businesses Must Be More Prepared For IIoT

Leaders Are Not Making The Right Moves

There is a degree of overconfidence in CEOs and other executives, said Accenture. Although 96 percent of CEOs and executives expressed confidence that senior leadership in their organizations grasp the nature of IIoT, only 38 percent said their leaders understand it completely.
Additionally, the result of a survey with more than 90 market leaders revealed that 88 percent of leaders who are actively pursuing IIoT initiatives said they still do not fully understand the underlying business models and long-term implications of IIoT.
