WPP, a global advertising company, is undergoing a significant restructuring called Elevate28 under new CEO Cindy Rose. This plan aims to save £500 million by 2028 by consolidating the company's structure into four units: creative, media, production, and enterprise solutions. The initiative involves an estimated £400 million cost, including job cuts, and a renewed focus on employee engagement and AI adoption. A key challenge is overcoming employee resistance to a mandatory return-to-office policy, which WPP is framing as essential for collaboration and employee satisfaction. AI
IMPACT AI adoption is a key component of WPP's restructuring, aimed at streamlining operations and improving employee performance.
