KNOW YOUR ENEMY: HOW THREE YEARS AT MCKINSEY SHAPED MY SECOND STARTUP

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Zac Townsend was an Associate Partner at McKinsey. This post talks about the reasons he joined the company, his time there, the projects he worked on, and the lessons he learned from the experience. After working there for three years, Townsend learned that it is impossible to fix institutions that have gotten too big - there are too many people, too many processes, and too much regulatory overhang. This led him to create his own company.
