Happy holidays to you from us here at McKinsey. Today we've got one of our most popular interviews from 2025. We'll be back January 8th with new episodes. This is the McKinsey Podcast, where we help you make sense out of our world's toughest business challenges. Welcome to the show.
I'm Lucia Rahili. And I'm Roberta Fassaro. Hey everyone, there's a lot of talk these days about the transformative long-term impact of AI on business. But in the short term, McKinsey's recent research says only 1% of companies believe they've actually achieved AI maturity. And what's standing in the way?
It is not the employees, it's the leaders. Leaders are not deploying enough capital, nor are they steering their companies closer to AI maturity fast enough. If you're curious, have a look at our article, Super Agency in the Workplace. In our second segment. We examine three types of resiliencies that CEOs can develop within their companies with McKinsey senior partner Ida Christensen.
