McKinsey female partners

Question

Hi McKinsey female experts! Which are the number of partners in your offices? Particularly Europe. Also, would you recommend Next Generation of Woman leaders?

Answer 1

Unfortunately, there are still little female partners (e.g., only 2 in the Madrid office, and similarly in others!)

However, this picture changes very much when you look at the new generations: in the business analysts classes there are at least 50% of girls (in mine, we were a majority, but it was the 1st time in history!)

The Next Generation Women Leaders (check out >> https://www.mckinsey.com/next-generation-women-leaders/overview) is an exclusive (they pick candidates one by one) three-day workshop in which attendees explore the importance of women in leadership and refine their own leadership skills. The NGWL award is a financial scholarship combined with individual mentorship from (mostly female) McKinsey consultants. It is an amazing workshop and totally worth applying (tough now applications are closed, but stay tunned!)

Answer 2

Hi,
in most EU countries the number is less than 10%, but I confirm it is going to grow soon (recruiting rate is 50-50% for all the roles)

Best,
Antonello

Answer 3

If you are interested in McKinsey I would definitely recommend the "Next Generation of Woman leaders" program. It's a good chance to get in touch with HR staff and real consultants
