We curate most relevant posts about Strategy & Consulting on LinkedIn and regularly share key takeaways. This edition explores how artificial intelligence is fundamentally reconstructing global consulting, enterprise operations, and regulatory compliance in 2026. Experts highlight a transition from human-intensive delivery models to agentic AI factories, where forward-deployed engineers and automated platforms replace traditional junior-level tasks. While the technology offers significant cost advantages and faster execution, leaders warn of a sameness trap that threatens to dilute strategic intuition and unique problem-solving. Beyond automation, the sources examine the impact of geopolitical volatility on trade tariffs and the necessity of sovereign intelligence for government stability. Ultimately, success depends on organisational readiness and high-quality data foundations rather than the mere adoption of new tools. The synthesis concludes that while AI can streamline complex systems like SAP or Pillar Two tax mandates, it cannot replace the essential human elements of curiosity, ethics, and accountability.
