Cirrus provides advice on leadership and digital learning to boost business performance. It has around 70 experts in the UK and in Australia, advising clients globally. It will now join Accenture's talent and organisation/human potential team.
Dr. Simon Hayward, CEO at Cirrus, said: “Joining Accenture creates an opportunity to bring our capabilities to more clients seeking expertise in leadership guidance. Together, we’ll be able to bring our innovative digital learning and leadership development services to clients around the world at a time of truly critical need.”
