For management, McKinsey is like Cartier, a famous brand in jewelry industry. No consulting firm is as famous, successful, highly praised and tight-lipped as McKinsey & Company. This legendary strategic think tank has trained many of the best management thinkers and business leaders in the world.
Business tycoons like tom peters, Kenyi Omar and Jon Kehlenbach cultivated their keen logic and insight at McKinsey. Giants like Lou Gostner of IBM and Harvey Gruber of American Express apply the strategic ideas they learned at McKinsey to the practice of running these world-class companies.
The McKinsey method reveals a series of management skills carefully protected by McKinsey-tools that can help anyone at any level think like a McKinsey consultant. In this book, Essen Russell, a former McKinsey analyst, provides you with a powerful method that will solve even the most complicated business problems.
This is a set of methods that you can use in any organization.
On the basis of summing up several years of McKinsey's front-line work experience and interviewing many McKinsey consultants at present and in the past, Russell takes you into a world (called "project" in McKinsey's words) to let you know how to benefit from McKinsey's management analysis skills in your daily life. Once you enter McKinsey's world, you will learn some inner secrets:
●80/20 rule-this is one of the most important rules to remind the true meaning of management consulting.
● "Elevator test"-let you know why it is best to sum up your thoughts in 30 seconds or less.
● Why is the problem not always a problem?
Clarify your premise, which is the road map to guide you from the problem to the solution.
● Seven keys to a successful information gathering dialogue.
Explain the secret of "pre-wiring" according to your situation to ensure success.
● Three elements of efficient communication.
How to deal with team members such as "debt collectors" or difficult colleagues?
How to make the whole enterprise accept your plan?
In McKinsey's method, Russell takes you into McKinsey's boot camp, making you a "consultant" and catching invincible solutions to business problems. Whether you are a senior executive, manager or business owner trying to deal with complex strategic issues, or an employee trying to improve efficiency and effectiveness in order to make a difference in the enterprise, McKinsey method provides you with brave and charming guidance on the road to business success, which is determining the direction of McKinsey's management thought today.
