Podcast cover

The McKinsey Podcast

Agentic AI's transformative impact on jobs and organizational structures is explored, addressing the paradox of significant AI investment without corresponding bottom-line impact. McKinsey’s Alexis Krivkovich discusses how businesses can adapt, focusing on reshaping roles, identifying future skills, and allaying workforce fears. The conversation highlights the potential for AI to tailor experiences and mobilize growth, while also noting the competitive risks. It emphasizes the need for leaders to rethink their roles, develop new skills to manage broader talent scopes and agentic tech, and foster a culture of curiosity and continuous learning. The discussion moves toward reimagining workflows, stressing end-to-end process redesigns for scalable impact, and involving multiple levels of the workforce to integrate human judgment with AI capabilities.
