		But for the consulting firm known as Accenture, its American roots became an obstruction in the way of its global future, or at least it seems to have appeared that way to those who'd prefer to have us believe that Accenture came into being a mere four years ago.
		Strangely, Accenture's management continues to argue forthrightly that since the arbitrator's decision stated that Accenture was not owned by Arthur Andersen, Accenture cannot be characterized as having broken off or spun off from Arthur Andersen.
		While Jackson Wilson, chief executive of Accenture's new business process outsourcing business, "joined Accenture in 1975," Stephan James, Accenture's chief operating officer, "joined Accenture in 1968." For its part, James's bio should perhaps be considered a historical artifact, given that it appears to confirm Accenture's existence as far back as the Johnson Administration.
