The New Equation

Group of PwC employees reading the Integrated report findings

 

Building trust and delivering sustained outcomes.

 

A community of solvers coming together in unexpected ways.

 

It all adds up to The New Equation.

 

 

 

Our vision for the PwC network, fuelled by our purpose, is to be the most trusted and relevant professional services business in the world.

The New Equation focuses on two interconnected needs that organisations face in the coming years: building trust across a wide range of areas that are important to stakeholders, and delivering sustained outcomes in an environment where the risk of disruption is more intense than ever before. 

PwC Africa’s six focus areas will help to address these needs among clients, communities and other stakeholders in Sub-Saharan Africa.

We’re calling our new global strategy The New Equation, and it speaks to the two most fundamental needs clients and organisations are grappling with today. Learn more about The New Equation in Africa.

Our purpose as PwC is to build trust in society and solve important problems. The New Equation will shape how we help to build trust, as well as how we deliver sustained outcomes as a community of solvers. Quality is at the heart of everything that we do, and is the foundation supporting our execution of The New Equation strategy.

Dion Shango, CEO of PwC Africa

A strategy designed to solve challenges - today and tomorrow.

PwC’s landmark global strategy reflects fundamental changes in the operating environment faced by clients and stakeholders, including technological disruption, climate change, fractured geopolitics and the continuing effects of COVID-19.

Searching for solutions to uncover, untangle and understand the world.

Innovative mindsets and smart technologies combine with fresh, diverse perspectives to move beyond the tried and tested. Together, they drive toward new ways of delivering transformation with the right business outcomes.

 

 

Building windows

Building trust for today and tomorrow.
Trust has never been more important. It’s the link that connects your organisation, your people, your customers, your stakeholders and the world. We know that trust isn’t something you can buy off the shelf. It’s something you earn through every interaction, every experience and every relationship.

 

Delivering sustained outcomes that make a difference.

Nothing is simple in our world today. The guiding principles that used to make sense have shifted—and opportunities and challenges can now switch in the blink of an eye. When the rules of the game are no longer obvious, you need to see beyond today to deliver outcomes that continue to create value for you, your people, your stakeholders and the communities where you live and work.

Empowered teams combining their skills with technology to solve real, human needs.

The New Equation is a future that is human-led and tech-powered. For us, people and technology work hand in hand. It’s about how human ingenuity combines with technology to deliver faster, more intelligent and better outcomes whilst building trust across the value chain.

Seven million hours

At PwC, we transformed ourselves through a global digital upskilling initiative that took seven million hours of routine work and redirected it towards higher-value activities that clients needed, and our people enjoyed doing. People and tech working together for a better outcome.

We are a community of solvers combining human ingenuity, experience and technology innovation to deliver sustained outcomes and build trust.

PwC's global strategy for how we solve important problems facing the world-today and tomorrow - reflects fundamental changes in the operating environment faced by clients and stakeholders, including technological disruption, climate change, fractured geopolitics and the continued effects of COVID-19.

It all adds up to The New Equation.
