State of Organizations: Change at scale

Organizations today face unprecedented pressure – from AI and technological innovation to economic uncertainty, geopolitical fragmentation, rising customer expectations, and evolving workforce needs. These forces are redefining how leaders create value and sustain performance.

The second edition of McKinsey’s State of Organizations research outlines the most important shifts impacting organizations today and draws on insights from more than 10,000 senior executives across 15 countries and 16 industries. While performance remains the top priority, the focus has shifted from short-term resilience to sustained productivity and long-term impact, with technology and AI at the center of transformation. The big takeaway is that in an uncertain world, sustained performance and value creation are the priority, ahead of short-term gains.

In this webinar, report co-authors Patrick Guggenberger and Damian Klingler provide a holistic view of the nine most important organizational shifts and lessons from industry leaders that forge a new path for the modern organization. Joining us is Tiffanie Bloyd, CPO at McDonald’s, to discuss how to drive change in times of uncertainty and disruption.
