Description of the enterprising work that went into this entry and its significance or impact on readers:

For 60 years, the McKinsey Quarterly has been the leading source of management information for top business executives. Recently, the top priorities of businesspeople have broadened. They still want to hit financial goals, woo and retain top talent, and run an efficient, innovative organization. Now, however, they are much more involved with external stakeholders, from NGOs and local governments to the people and environments of the communities where they are located.

In 2023, the Quarterly expanded upon last year’s momentum towards meeting the needs of modern executives, especially with generative AI in the mix. In Issue 1, we assessed how economic and political turbulence could presage the start of a new era that’s structurally very different. In Issue 2, we addressed how many companies are rethinking their China strategies due to more opportunities for economic growth in the cusp of a new era. Finally, in Issue 3, we covered how any companies struggle with digital and AI transformations, with a playbook on getting it right, based on years of research.

This year, the Quarterly built upon the upgrades we debuted in 2023 through in-depth reports, interviews, and data. As the Quarterly heads into its seventh decade of publishing, part of McKinsey’s vision is a sustainable, inclusive future for all—a core theme of our publishing this year. We’ve continued to improve our magazine’s appearance, blending eye-catching graphics with clean layouts, and have included insights from the two successful books we published in-house in 2023. We’ve worked hard to prioritize our magazine in a digital age—including through timely, print-only exclusives—and reinforce McKinsey Publishing’s place as vital reading for any executive.
