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, introduces a new article from the firm titled "The operating model advantage: Why AI winners are rewiring their organizations".

The email's central message is short and direct: the real competitive advantage in AI comes not from the technology itself but from redesigning how work gets 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 operating models backed by the technology, not on the technology alone.

The body of the email gives no further detail on the article's content (no figures, company examples or specific methodology), so it cannot be summarized in more depth without speculating about what it contains.

In 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 cover how industrial organizations can use the latest AI capabilities to improve their service offerings and operational performance, as well as unlock new sources of value, with a specific focus on the services arm of industrial companies.
