Prediction: McKinsey will not survive another 100 years.
WheelsAtLarge•2h ago
Most of us, by far, won't either.

But consulting will always be part of the economy. It's impossible for businesses to always have the expertise they need so they hire a consultant. Especially, if they say that they can predict what companies needs to survive or move ahead of others. I bet most large corporations have a number of consultants as part of there executive team right now and always will.

Every company will have an AI consultant in the future so no need for McKinsey nor human consultants employed by a dedicated consulting company.

McKinsey and it's ilk will go the way of dedicated travel agent shops of that existed in 50s.
