McKinsey Germany PEI Dimensions

Hi all,

Having (unsuccesfully) interviewed some time ago for McK Germany, I recall, that the spcifically told candidates, that in the 1st round (virtual) they would be asking for the "Inclusive Leadership" dimension.

My questions:

  1. Is that still the case, or could pot. any of the PEI dimensions be asked?
  2. Is McK Germany using all 4 dimensions, or not courageous change?

Thank you!

Hey there, 

It varies at different times. My 4 coachees of mine just recently got Personal Impact and Entrepreneurial Drive in their round 1 and 3 others got Inclusive Leadership. I wouldn't say that there is an exact formula

As to if all 4 dimensions are being tested at McKinsey Germany, I would say yes they are. I had one coachee of mine interviewing a few days ago and they got Courageous Change in their first round too. 

So my advice is to be prepared for all :-) 

The PEI is my specialty, so if you'd like to work on crafting distinctive stories, then just DM me

All the best!

Hey!

Yes, McKinsey Germany still focuses on the PEI dimensions, typically asking about Personal Impact in the first interview. The firm now includes Inclusive Leadership, Courageous Change, Entrepreneurial Drive, and the recently added Purpose & Values dimension. While the structure may vary, it’s always best to prepare for all dimensions to stay flexible.

Let me know if you need any support—happy to help! I specialize in this area as a former McKinsey interviewer and would love to share insights. ?

Hi there,

(1) Most now have PI as the first PEI dimension.

(2) Yes, they use all 4 dimensions + sometimes the Values and Purpose Interview (google - I wrote an in-depth article on it)

All the best,
