Being without limits all boils down to the choices we make about which voices to listen to! Well said, Jenny! I love these valuable tips on how to shatter invisible ceilings and embrace our true leadership potential! Explore career opportunities with Accenture: https://accntu.re/48Fkftd #IWD2024 #BeWithoutLimits #AccentureCareers [Video description: The video opens with Jenny Bigay, Senior Manager of Accenture Malaysia seated on a stool in front of a large digital screen displaying Accenture’s International Women’s Day background and the tagline "Be Without Limits." In the video, Jenny shares that she believes being limitless means challenging restrictive thoughts. In her 15 years at Accenture, she defied assumptions about leadership and work-life balance. It all comes down to choosing which voices to heed. Here's how Jenny overcomes limiting beliefs: 1. Taking action: Seeking mentors and making time for hobbies. 2. Embracing strengths: As an introverted leader, she influences with purpose and empathy. 3. Adopting a growth mindset: Exploring global opportunities, learning, connecting, adapting. Together, we can shatter self-imposed ceilings and be limitless. Video zooms out with Accenture greater than logo serves as transition to outro. Background photographs correspond to Jenny’s points: 1. Split-screen display: On the left, Jenny with a scarf over her head, sits on top of a hill, enjoying the view of a breathtaking mountain landscape. On the right, Jenny stands confidently with her diverse team, consisting of four men and four women, all smiling and posing together. 2.

Split-screen display: On the left, Jenny, wearing scuba gear, is seen underwater, enjoying a scuba-diving adventure with a friend. On the right, Jenny, now out of the water, sits on top of a hill, taking in the stunning view of a mountain landscape, her face filled with joy and contentment. 4. Jenny, seen in curly hair and spectacles with clear frame, stands proudly with her colleagues, fellow service delivery leads. 5.

💫 I am excited to announce that we at Accenture now have coaches for cultural change who are promoting international collaboration and helping teams better understand and leverage cultural differences - and that I am one of them!   💫 We support our colleagues and global teams to work better together by - Promoting Cultural Sensitivity: We highlight why people adhere to certain patterns and how to break these behaviors to overcome cultural barriers. - The 5 Dimensions of Cultural Change: We help teams to better understand and navigate cultural differences in the areas of Independence vs. Interdependence, Egalitarianism vs. Hierarchy, Risk vs. Caution, Directness vs. Indirectness, and Task vs. Relationship. This fosters deeper cultural sensitivity and more effective communication. - Practice and Theory: By combining theoretical knowledge with practical applications, we enable participants to immediately apply what they have learned in their daily work, strengthening intercultural collaboration.   💫 Thanks to our coaches for cultural change, our international teams significantly improve their collaboration, minimize cultural misunderstandings, and create a more productive and harmonious work environment.

Today marks the end of my journey with Accenture in the Philippines. It has been a truly rich and transformative experience. In my time here, I’ve learned what it takes to execute large-scale process and systems transformations—how robust and comprehensive change management, communications, and learning solutions are critical not just for implementation, but for meaningful success and impact. I deeply appreciate the firm’s commitment to meaningful change, stewardship, respect for diversity and inclusion, data integrity, upskilling, leadership development, and value creation. These principles, paired with the opportunity to collaborate with some of the strongest, smartest, and most resilient people I’ve ever met, have left an indelible mark on me. Beyond the work, I will miss the simple joys of working just a few floors above a Starbucks, a Foot Locker, a Muji, and other little conveniences of being atop a shopping mall (the traffic is another story, of course). I will miss moments of quiet reflection at the St. Gabriel the Archangel Chapel. But what I will miss most are the people—the camaraderie, the brilliance, and the shared resilience of colleagues who consistently showed up with purpose and drive. Of course, I cannot say thank you enough to my People Lead (Sari Daradar) and fellow leads at the Talent & Organization tower of the ACN Strategy & Consulting Manila Node (Suzie Barba, Rastle Lozano, Jasper Jamito, James Al Yanson, Anjali Bishnoi (She/Her)). As I turn the page to my next chapter, I leave with gratitude and the words of Tennyson echoing in my mind: "We are not now that strength which in old days Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are; One equal temper of heroic hearts, Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." Onward, with a heart full of lessons and a will to strive and seek what’s next. #LetThereBeChange
