True strategic delivery isn&#8217;t measured in hours logged, it\u2019s measured in the meaningful, durable change left behind. That belief is not only ingrained in the outcomes we produce, our partnership approach with our clients but in our very DNA. It is part of Newton&#8217;s culture.<\/p>\n<p>For most firms, pivoting to outcome-based pricing sounds simple. But how do you build a culture that&#8217;s truly accountable to outcomes and a team that&#8217;s genuinely invested in the client&#8217;s challenge? There&#8217;s no quick fix &#8211; it takes more than a change to your commercial model.<\/p>\n<p>Our Managing Partner,\u00a0<a id=\"menurhl1\" class=\"fui-Link ___1q1shib f2hkw1w f3rmtva f1ewtqcl fyind8e f1k6fduh f1w7gpdv fk6fouc fjoy568 figsok6 f1s184ao f1mk8lai fnbmjn9 f1o700av f13mvf36 f1cmlufx f9n3di6 f1ids18y f1tx3yz7 f1deo86v f1eh06m1 f1iescvh fhgqx19 f1olyrje f1p93eir f1nev41a f1h8hb77 f1lqvz6u f10aw75t fsle3fq f17ae5zn\" title=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/steven-phillips-a72891\/\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/steven-phillips-a72891\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Link Steven Phillips\">Steven Phillips<\/a>, spoke to the\u00a0<a id=\"menurhl3\" class=\"fui-Link ___1q1shib f2hkw1w f3rmtva f1ewtqcl fyind8e f1k6fduh f1w7gpdv fk6fouc fjoy568 figsok6 f1s184ao f1mk8lai fnbmjn9 f1o700av f13mvf36 f1cmlufx f9n3di6 f1ids18y f1tx3yz7 f1deo86v f1eh06m1 f1iescvh fhgqx19 f1olyrje f1p93eir f1nev41a f1h8hb77 f1lqvz6u f10aw75t fsle3fq f17ae5zn\" title=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/the-wall-street-journal\/\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/the-wall-street-journal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Link The Wall Street Journal\">The Wall Street Journal<\/a> about how hours-based consultancies want to pivot their operating models in light of AI\u2019s impact and comments on why other businesses might not find the shift so easy.<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n            <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/section>\n\n    \n\n\n        <section id=\"\" class=\"align wp-block-acf-cta-banner\">\n            <div class=\"block \">\n                            <div class=\"block-inner add-visible\">\n                \n<div class=\"cta-wrapper slategrey\">\n    <div class=\"content-wrapper\">\n        <!-- General headline styles are set in common.scss -->\n\n<hgroup class=\"headline-wrapper  \" role=\"group\" aria-roledescription=\"Heading group\">\n                <h2 aria-roledescription=\"subtitle\" class=\"main-title \">Read the full report<\/h2>\n        <\/hgroup>\n                                                            \n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsj.com\/cfo-journal\/inside-consultants-messy-shift-from-hourly-billing-7bd9b802\" class=\"newton-button \" target=\"\">\n    <span class=\"button-text\">here <\/span>\n    <svg class=\"chevron-icon\" width=\"8\" height=\"14\" viewBox=\"0 0 8 14\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\n        <path d=\"M0.875 0.75L7.125 7L0.875 13.25\" fill=\"#272C36\"\/>\n    <\/svg>\n    <div class=\"arrows\">\n        <svg class=\"button-arrow\" width=\"96\" height=\"192\" viewBox=\"0 0 96 192\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\n            <path d=\"M0 0L96 96L0 192\" fill=\"#272C36\"\/>\n        <\/svg>\n        <svg class=\"button-arrow large\" width=\"147\" height=\"294\" viewBox=\"0 0 147 294\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\">\n            <path d=\"M0 0L147 147L0 294\" fill=\"#272C36\"\/>\n        <\/svg>\n    <\/div>\n<\/a>\n                        <\/div>\n\n    <svg class=\"shape shape-left\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"321\" height=\"384\" viewBox=\"0 0 321 384\" fill=\"none\">\n        <path d=\"M284.14 437.741L79.369 339.437M284.14 437.741L319.454 212.513L177.324 133.323M284.14 437.741L79.5152 509.541L-57.0084 443.102M79.369 339.437L177.324 133.323M79.369 339.437L-57.0084 443.102M177.324 133.323L-94.3018 2.21111L-173.637 175.248L-57.0084 443.102\" stroke=\"#FF6223\" stroke-width=\"2\"\/>\n    <\/svg>\n\n    <svg class=\"shape shape-right\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"493\" height=\"422\" viewBox=\"0 0 493 422\" fill=\"none\">\n        <path d=\"M1 363.54L184.832 179.576M1 363.54L230.944 487.074L370.378 363.54M1 363.54V115.249L124.534 -7.06129M184.832 179.576L370.378 363.54M184.832 179.576L124.534 -7.06129M370.378 363.54L615 119.785L458.13 -31.5234L124.534 -7.06129\" stroke=\"#FF6223\" stroke-width=\"2\"\/>\n    <\/svg>\n\n<\/div>\n\n            <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/section>\n\n    ","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":8100,"template":"","content_type":[21],"markets":[42],"class_list":["post-8101","content_library","type-content_library","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","content_type-news","markets-newton-wide"],"pp_statuses_selecting_workflow":false,"pp_workflow_action":"current","pp_status_selection":"publish","acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
