The lifecycle of seminal McKinsey reports seems to be shortening. Much like the War for Talent in 1997, McKinsey’s culture shifting Diversity Matters report in 2015 is now under scrutiny, following a replicability crisis of its central point that the more diverse a company is, the greater the revenue it generates. Its hard to not see the emergence of this critique as part of a wider cultural conflict manifest in media, politics and society at large. Big implications for us in TA / HR - this debate requires our active participation not just our passive observation.
