# McKinsey & Company

**McKinsey & Company** is a global management consulting firm that partnered with [[entity-mit-d89]] to conduct the underlying research (2021 and 2023 surveys of 100+ companies).

McKinsey's broader research is cited in the conclusion for the finding that **AI leaders deliver higher shareholder returns** ([[claim-ai-leaders-deliver-higher-returns]]). Its "State of AI" series defines **AI high performers**, and its **"Rewired"** framework (built on >200 AI transformations) expands the four pillars into six dimensions. Co-author [[entity-vijay-d-silva]] is a senior partner/advisor at the firm.
