BAME initiatives at Mckinsey & Company

McKinsey is partnering with the Executive Leadership Council, an organisation dedicated to increasing the number of successful black executives in the US and worldwide. McKinsey colleagues are pictured here alongside leaders of ELC and participants in our inaugural C-Suite Academy for black executives in New York.

Our offices around the world seek to attract, retain, and develop the most talented and qualified people wherever we work.

For example, the McKinsey Leaders Program in our Johannesburg office is designed to create future generations of black South African leaders. In 2017, this office achieved Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE) Level 1 contributor status under the latest Codes of Good Practice. The codes are the South African government’s initiative to address historical disparity in access to economic opportunities for previously disadvantaged groups. We remain committed to supporting South Africa’s transformation, by creating career opportunities for black professionals and through our supplier development program.
