You also forgot to mention. In Australia they contracted to PWC and what was occurring was that they on the 1 hand advised the government on new tax reforms to go after big business who avoid tax. And at the same time consulted those same businesses how to get around those same laws. Massive conflict of interest. They then got banned for years. Others came close to getting banned too. It caused massive outrage.

Seems an ethics policy which protects consultancies from conflicts of interest, exposure to politically driven or divisive interests, election interference etc, based on strongly internalized values, vision and mission, might be the need of the hour. A definition of ethical leadership was already drafted by Mc Kinsey, which is brilliant, and if they demand mutual adherence to that definition from their clients, including Governments, they would surely move the needle for our world to become more honest, decent, and value driven💜🙏🕊️
We need to ban consultants to work like an employees. They should only be allowed to consult in a meeting which recorded. Now either they are being used like 2nd class workers or steer companies for their profit under name of management consultants
At 10:17, an image from a McKinsey report is presented, showing three supposed enemies of Saudi Arabia. However, the last image does not appear to be Ahmad, but rather Brazil’s President, Lula.
Consulting corporations are a cancer!!!! Look at the DEI ( Diversity, equity, and inclusion ) organization are doing. The gaming industry is dead, companies are losing millions or billions of dollars combines, big techs such Microsoft and many others, are doing massive layoffs because of this so called "consulting". If this mess is happening within the social sphere, you better believe that within the politics sphere, things are way uglier and darker.
I think with the volumes of evidence that exists; Corporations are already ruling the world. The one thing that the corporatocracy was not doing yet is the very job of governing. Now through the outsourcing of government policy to big consulting corporations, even governing is now done by corporations. Why should we continue to elect governments if private business firm will end up doing the governing for them?
In my experience they are often smooth talkers. So would specify the 'insult' part to 'insult peoples intellect'. Also, it's very difficult for them to wash away their "consultant mindset" if you employ them.

Oh wow
Ex McKinsey alumni who was also a Starbuck CEO recently was sacked and the stock tanked 20% in a day!
And most of the consultancies are now sacking their staff. Clearly, they did not get their projections of business correctly.

This is a sector which learned and honed lessons from Machiavelli and Ed Bernays very well
I can attest. People I worked with when I was working in consulting agency were mostly Machiavellian-type (i'm not an American)
i remember considering Anderson in the late 90s out of engineering school for the money, but didnt want to wear a suit nor consult without experience.
Very timely intervention on this important topic, it has just given more ways to look at this shady business of Consultancy.
Want a contract? - Write patron pleasing reports - 'he who pays the piper calls the tune'.
@DW Wrong picture at 10’21’.The picture attributed to Ahmad in the McKinsey slide is an old picture of Brazilian president Lula.
For as long as human can't live in unity, organizations will be our middle man with the power of both worlds. ⚖

Its not like government not aware of the illusion. It is just too comfortable.

And guess what happens to the people who work for them? These firms turn intelligent humans into egocentric monsters

Former McKinsey, buddy couldn't invest in a canvas print of that Bon Iver poster?
don’t think most people care that much about superficial things
If you like to con people and to insult people.. you consult.
Very clear. No con-fusion.

This kind of consultancy companies have too much power on politics
They are like a police here where I live, in one side takes the information from you on the other side helps the criminals how to plunder you more.
Of course Zuma let them get to him🙄
