The operating model advantage: why AI leaders are redesigning their organizations

By McKinsey & Company.

This email, sent by Dorothee Herring and Steffen Fuchs, global leaders of McKinsey's Industrials practice, presents a new article from the firm titled "The operating model advantage: Why AI winners are rewiring their organizations".

The central idea conveyed by the email is brief but direct: the real competitive advantage in AI does not come from the technology itself, but from redesigning how work is done and how decisions are made within the organization. According to McKinsey, the success of companies leading AI adoption will ultimately depend on people and on the operating models that are supported by technology, and not solely on the technology per se.

The body of the email does not go into further detail about the article's content (it includes no figures, company examples or specific methodology), so it is not possible to summarize it in greater depth without speculating about its content.

As a secondary section ("Also Consider"), the email promotes a webinar scheduled for August 25, titled "The impact of AI in industrial services", featuring Florent Kervazo, Harold Brink and Subu Narayanan. According to the description, the webinar will address how industrial organizations can leverage the latest AI capabilities to improve their service offerings and operational performance, as well as unlock new sources of value, focused specifically on the service arm of industrial companies.
