Hi, it’s Nicolas from The Family. Today, I’m pursuing my “11 Notes” series focusing on interesting companies in the Entrepreneurial Age, and here’s McKinsey & Company.

I’m back to my “11 Notes” series dedicated to interesting businesses in the current paradigm shift, following installments on Amazon, Berkshire Hathaway (with my cofounder Oussama Ammar), Goldman Sachs, Lego, and Y Combinator. A new episode on McKinsey & Company was suggested to me on Twitter and since I find this firm interesting and revealing, I decided to make them next up.

Note that I’ll follow up with an in-depth focus on the consulting industry in this week’s Friday Reads, which will be sent to paying subscribers only. If you want to receive it on Friday, now is the time to subscribe!
