Our programs bring the best of McKinsey to nonprofits and individuals determined to continue growing. McKinsey believes that for all people to prosper, economies must grow. A new era of growth is possible: one that doesn’t treat growth and positive impact as opposing forces. McKinsey is privileged to work with organizations that are on a new growth journey—one that pursues sustainability, inclusion, and economic growth, all at the same time. McKinsey & Company has a long history of giving back by helping communities and nurturing great talent. In 2020, McKinsey made a 10-year $2 billion commitment to social responsibility. Two years later, McKinsey.org launched to provide pro-bono skill-building programs for nonprofits and individuals.

Most project debriefs happen *after* something goes wrong. A pre-mortem flips that approach, by assuming failure before the work even begins. At the start of an initiative, the team imagines looking back six months into the future after the project has completely failed. Everyone takes a few minutes to write down why it failed and shares their reasons openly. In our McKinsey.org Ability-to-Execute (A2E) for Nonprofits program, tools like the Pre-Mortem Matrix transform how organizations manage risk and achieve success.

Remember our post on communicating with clarity? Today, we’re talking miscommunication. Even when we try our best to be clear, we’ve all sent a message that was met with confusion, silence, or prompted the wrong action entirely. This typically happens because some key elements like context, risks, and specific actions are missing, leading to misalignment in teams. Swipe through to uncover the 4 common traits of ineffective workplace communication, and how to spot them in your own messages to avoid them in the future. These learnings are part of our Ability to Execute (A2E) for Nonprofits program. Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/ggmgTusP #CommunicationSkills #Productivity #WorkplaceTips #A2E
