When McKinsey Comes to Town is a work of investigative nonfiction by Walt Bogdanich and Michael Forsythe that examines McKinsey and Company, the elite management consulting firm whose advice has shaped corporations, governments, and public institutions across the world. Published in 2022, the book belongs to the tradition of corporate accountability journalism, combining interviews, documents, historical context, and case studies to assess how a highly secretive advisory firm gained influence far beyond public visibility. Its central purpose is not simply to describe consulting as an industry, but to ask what happens when private advisers help powerful clients pursue efficiency, growth, and political advantage with limited transparency. The authors focus on the gap between McKinsey public ideals and the consequences of its work, especially in areas involving layoffs, public safety, health policy, regulatory conflicts, and controversial clients. The result is a critical study of institutional power operating behind formal decision makers.
