We are the trusted advisor to the world's leading businesses, governments, and institutions. Our scale, scope, and knowledge allow us to address problems that no one else can.

Our global alumni network of over 50,000 former colleagues demonstrates the lasting value of a McKinsey partnership.

We are moving decisively toward net zero while partnering with clients to do the same. In 2023, 4,600 colleagues worked on 1,720 sustainability-related engagements with 761 clients across 67 countries and in every industry. We partnered with over 600 clients on more than 1,600 sustainability engagements helping clients contribute to 20% of global GDP growth and significant CO2 emissions reductions. We are committed to becoming a leading catalyst for decarbonization through our client work and own actions to reach net zero by 2030. 100% of our air travel emissions were covered by a $50 per ton internal carbon fee. We co-founded Frontier with Stripe, Alphabet, Shopify, and Meta—an advance market commitment to buy $1+ billion of carbon removal by 2030.

Growing opportunity through pro bono projects, McKinsey.org programs, and colleague efforts in our communities. We have committed $2 billion to social responsibility efforts by 2030 and have so far contributed nearly $620 million in cash and in-kind support toward that commitment. In 2023, we upskilled, reskilled, or supported towards economic inclusion 19 million people through our nonprofit partners and pro bono programs. Our colleagues have spent nearly a half million hours on volunteering, board service, and pro bono engagements. The McKinsey Institute for Black Economic Mobility is reaching more historically underserved populations to create broad-based economic opportunity.

Diversity and inclusion aren't departments, efforts, or projects at McKinsey—they're how we live, what we respect, and fundamental to our success. Our colleagues come from all backgrounds, walks of life, races, and sexual orientations. They hail from 120+ countries and every background, including business, tech, data science, engineering, UX design, medicine, law, finance, literature, and more. That diversity makes us stronger and enables us to tackle our clients' toughest challenges. Our global workforce is 48 percent women. In the US, 52 percent of our client-serving colleagues are from racial or ethnic minority groups. We are doubling down on diversity, tripling our number of Black hires, and electing twice the number of women partners in five years. We've engaged more than 67,000 Black, Asian, Hispanic, and Latino professionals in our Connected Leaders Academy.
