McKinsey approach
Lesson 1: McKinsey’s professional style
customer first
Be proactive at all times
Professionals should "work to perfection"
Monks and Artists
What is a “McKinsey person”?
The essence of McKinsey-style problem-solving skills is that people who master this skill will unknowingly possess the mental strength to be calm, powerful and optimistic.
Pay attention to appearance
Don’t treat “investigation” as a job
Problem-solving skills are not about memorization but practical application
Become a unique expert
Don’t just solve the immediate problem
Change the perspective of attention and break away from the boundary of the phenomenon --> Discover the real problem
Think critically: “Is it possible that the real problem isn’t here?”
“Is it confusing the issue itself?”
Lesson 2 Basic steps in McKinsey-style problem solving
What is "problem solving"?
Why does this problem occur?
What should be done to prevent such problems from occurring?
Solve the problem
Basic steps to solve a problem
1. Distinguish between problem setting and answer areas
2. Organize and structure the topic: logic tree
No leakage, no weight MECE
Break it down based on facts
Don’t dwell on less important things
3. Collect information
Don’t overgather information
If too many factors are taken into consideration, even if a lot of time is spent in the mobile phone information and verification process, it will only increase the material for judgment. Too much material may lead to a waste of time in the subsequent judgment process and miss the best opportunity to implement actions.
4. Establish hypotheses and conduct analysis
5. Test the hypothesis: key point tree
Starting from the key questions (key points), we verify whether the hypothesis is true based on the many factors derived from it.
No leakage, no weight MECE
6. Consider the solution: empty *rain* umbrella
Empty: facts, status quo, background
Rain: Meaning, that is, what does this current situation mean?
Umbrella: the solution
7. Implement the solution
Points to note when solving problems
Don’t be too limited to your current situation or constraints
Solving real problems means achieving the desired or desired state, that is, filling the gap between the goal and the current state. The current situation or constraints may not be relevant to the goal in the first place. Or maybe those circumstances are changing too.
Always keep thinking logically
The original intention of logical thinking is to clearly distinguish causes and consequences, and to find reasonable ways of thinking or judgment.
Repeat "why" over and over again
Must consider "who, what, how to do it"
Special Courses A Starter Kit for McKinsey-style Analysis Frameworks
There is a framework in the mind
Use the Business Systems framework when you want to capture important factors in the overall process
Business system: refers to differentiating various necessary elements based on performance when developing a business and organizing them into a continuous process
In the business system, manpower, material resources, financial resources, information and technology, etc. are first invested, and then the finished products are manufactured and the process is followed in a down-to-earth manner. Analyze the actual actions in each step and explore how to improve, reorganize, redesign, etc.
[Lewis] It should be compared to when looking at the overall process, first compare the classic processes one by one, and then analyze them one by one.
Want to use the “3C” framework when discussing the fundamentals of market strategy
Customer, Competitor, Company
Use the “7S” framework when looking to re-evaluate your organization
Shared value, Organizational Structure, Strategy, Talent, Staff, Organizational Culture Style, Organizational Advantages Skill, Company System
When you don’t know how to choose, use the “position matrix”
When you want to find a real solution to a problem, use a "logic tree"
Lesson 3: McKinsey-style Information Processing Techniques
The investigation should be based on original materials
Use information sexy
When the wind blows, what will happen to the barrel maker?
The occurrence of one thing may have unexpected effects on other things
Lesson 4: McKinsey-style thinking techniques to improve problem-solving abilities
Don’t just think about the two sides of the coin
What's the future?
The "determination"/determination to never give up
Make the five senses sharper
Get enough sleep, rest, and meditate
Relax and focus at the same time
Instead of feeling tired, you can concentrate naturally
gain clear thinking
framework thinking
Go beyond your own framework
Consciously breaking through your own framework in daily life can inspire new thinking
Distinguish between facts and opinions
When listening to what others are saying, break down the other person's words into opinions and facts while listening, so that you will not be easily led by the other person and maintain a clear mind.
Starting from "questions"
Always observe things and think with questions
What is the core of the question?
1. Make the question “in one sentence”
2. What is most important?
Extension: How can you summarize the content of the book you read in one sentence?
Good questions to help get to the heart of the question
Put judgments (prejudices/assertions) aside and try to approach the other person with a learning attitude
Basic attitude for asking high-quality questions
- Pay attention to the other person's reaction
- Listen with pure curiosity
- Don’t judge each other’s words and ideas
- Pay attention to simple questions and ask them
-Think and observe deeply
Questions that change perspective, e.g.
* If you were a customer, what would you like to do?
* If you were working, what do you think you would be doing?
* From the perspective of life as a whole, how important is this matter?
Questions that explore causes, e.g.
* Which part of the whole process made you feel stressed?
* In today's environment, what aspect makes you feel happy physically and mentally?
* What is something you want to do but don’t actually do?
Issues related to recognizing the value of the other party, such as
* When will you feel satisfied?
* What is the most important and irreplaceable thing for you?
* How do you spend 1 million yen in one day?
Question whether the question is true
The so-called false questions refer to questions that do not need to be discussed at this time, or that do not have answers at all.
Don’t forget the big picture
Try the "Elevator Test"

Lesson 5: McKinsey-style method to improve your own abilities
Make full use of your own existence value
Look at your appearance and inner self
Looking decadent or distant from the outside mostly comes from weak inner energy or a negative attitude towards things.
Carry simple tools
If you have too many items or information, you will gradually be burdened by useless things and lose your clear thinking.
Have a role model
Franklin Effect: People who do favors to someone will want to give more favors to the other person.
non-judgmental
Whether you are asking others for advice or conducting interviews to collect information, do not preset a position.
Have lunch with seniors once a month instead of dinner
Lunch is one hour, short but effective; dinner needs to be specially arranged, and the effect is not good from the beginning
Lesson 6: McKinsey-style ability to create results
Achieve results within a limited time
Even if you can't like him, you can still resonate and share it
First, know what type of person the other person is. Secondly, it is also important to consciously focus on the strengths and strengths of the other person. Therefore, trying to discover more than 10 strengths and weaknesses of the other party will have significant results. Or, it can also be called looking for qualities in the other person that you sincerely respect.
Report before leadership asks
What type of person is your boss? What do you pay attention to often? What kind of reports do you need to receive a positive review? Instead of complaining about your boss, think about how you can control your boss with ease
Ways to show your presence
competence leadership
Get rid of the shackles of "should theory"
What is the “should be” of their respective roles? No! Change different angles and methods!
Don't do all the work alone
Ask and ask others for advice
Design work
Planning work using project management thinking
Gantt chart
Use 4Ps to plan your work: Purpose, Problem Position, Perspective, and Completion Period.
Use "Original Mode"
When looking into a problem, always think about the original purpose and the original phenomenon. think about initial thoughts
By thinking about what it was like, you can expand your thinking, discover what you missed, or inspire new ideas.
The more divergent the thinking, the easier it is to develop zero ideas
design meeting
Carefully design the meeting and process before the meeting starts to achieve an efficient meeting
Be sure to consciously participate in meetings
Use "we" instead of "I"
raise valid questions
Lesson 7: McKinsey-style Presentation Techniques
Three elements needed for a presentation
Create demonstration materials and demonstration materials that can be used for presentations and actual demonstrations
Don’t start with slides
The key task is to connect the truth of the matter, the reasons and the plans deduced from it into a chain before doing so.
Clever use of pyramid structure
Convey the logic of empty, rain and umbrella
Let the information crystallize
Think deeply and find the real question or essence
How do you become a thinker? The key lies in the level of mother tongue
A chart, a message
question
1. What is the difference between a gist tree and a logic tree?
