McKinsey Quaterly: Latest Business Information Portal



New ways of thinking about business management

The McKinsey Quarterly, the business journal of McKinsey & Company. Our goal is to offer new ways of thinking about management in the private, public, and nonprofit sectors. We aim to help business people run their organizations more productively, more competitively, and more creatively.

Quarterly articles, written by McKinsey consultants, offer practical ideas based on the Firm's experience with the world's largest companies and on proprietary research and close ties to academic institutions.

The McKinsey Quarterly content is available at our Web site mckinseyquarterly.com and in our print journal.

Free registration gives readers Web access to hundreds of articles and to an array of newsletters and topical alerts.

Premium Membership provides readers with Web access to all of our articles, dating back to 1992, plus a subscription to our print journal.
