Marvin Bower worked for and led McKinsey & Company for 45 years. He succeeded Jim McKinseys untimely death. He wrote Perspectives on McKinsey for McKinsey employees, and it is not available to the general public as it contains trade secrets. This account is his own unique view on the development of McKinsey & Company. Bower outlines the eleven key factors of success for McKinsey, the three needs for success in consulting, how to create better organizations, and how to ensure each client gets a 10-to-1 return on each consulting dollar spent with McKinsey. Chapters Years of Shaping Purpose; The Firm's Early Years; Merging and Unmerging; Building a Distinctive National Firm; Becoming an International Firm; Building our Clientele; Professionalism - The Firm's Secret Strength; Development of Our Consulting Staff Philosophy; Developing Our Managing Philosophy and System; Perspective from the Sidelines; and Gearing the Firm to a Successful Future.
The former CEO of McKinsey & Company shares his experiences and advice on building new businesses, recruiting the best people, leading effectively, and managing successfully
In 1933, Marvin Bower was hired by McKinsey & Company to manage a newly acquired branch in New York. He served as managing director from 1950 to 1967, and remained a leadership figure at McKinsey as director and partner until 1992. He "is considered the father of modern management consulting" (Harvard Business School). His principled insistence on impeccable professional standards in substance, ethics, and style; his dedication to the professional development of his colleagues; and his candor, all served as a role model for several generations of management consultants, both within and outside McKinsey.
Perspective on McKinsey was written by Marvin Bower, published by McKinsey & Company and was printed in 1979 in a Hardcover binding.
