Recently read The Firm: The Story of McKinsey, by Duff McDonald (affiliate link). Before I do a write up, please find a 16 min video by CNBC which highlights some of the strengths (reputation, history, alumni, 17,000 over-achiever consultants), and controversies (Enron, Valeant, MIO, South Africa)
In the end, McKinsey excels at what it does.
Very interesting video that gave insight into the McKinsey business model. I’m looking forward to your article on the book!
Thanks for watching, yes, Duff McDonald is calling. . .
