McKinsey&Company is a leading global management consulting firm founded by James O'McKinsey in 1926 in the United States. The company is committed to helping businesses achieve significant and lasting improvements in business performance, and building excellent organizational structures that can attract, cultivate, and motivate outstanding talents. McKinsey adopts a "one company" partnership system, with over 80 subsidiaries in 44 countries worldwide and more than 7000 consultants. In Greater China, McKinsey has four subsidiaries in Beijing, Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Taipei, with over 40 directors and 250 consultants. Over the past decade, McKinsey has completed more than 800 projects across various fields, including overall and business unit strategy, corporate finance, marketing/sales and channels, organizational structure, manufacturing/procurement/supply chain, technology, product development, and more.
McKinsey&Company has faced some challenges, such as the economic recession caused by the oil crisis in the 1970s, as well as internal management and external competitive pressures. These issues have prompted McKinsey to engage in self reflection and adjustment, including optimizing the structure of professional personnel, attracting specialized experts with specific industry background knowledge, and strengthening industry background analysis through the implementation of industry classification business units.
In addition, McKinsey also collaborates with higher education institutions such as Tsinghua University to jointly establish a digital capability development center, providing support in various aspects such as course development, laboratory co construction, enterprise mentorship, and internship training.
