McKinsey's job is to convince retarded C suite members to adopt changes and reforms that were already suggested numerous times by the rank and file peons and to take the blame if they go south while charging $1000/hr for "consulting services."Fuelman » 19 Dec 2025, 11:03 am » wrote: ↑ I doubt America is that much different than the UK.

A new approach to improving government productivity
aking government more productive offers substantial rewards for the public. A McKinsey study across 42 countries found that if public services could reach the productivity levels of the leading performers in their peer groups, the improvement would be worth an estimated $3.5 trillion per year.1 Since then, governments have spent more on public services, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.2 Allowing for this increase and inflation, the productivity gap could be well over $5 trillion per year in 2024. These additional resources could be redirected to further improve public services, invested to meet longer-term needs (for example, those of aging populations), or used to tackle intensifying fiscal challenges
Public sector productivity in the United Kingdom, as in many countries, has been declining since 1995. According to our research, between 1995 and 2008, public sector productivity decreased by an average of 0.1 percent per year. Since the 2008 financial crisis, the decline has accelerated to 0.9 percent per year. Overall, public sector productivity has decreased by about 20 percent since 1995. In contrast, private sector productivity in the United Kingdom has increased by 50 percent over the same period, and in the United States, it has increased by 150 percent. The public has noticed this disparity. In a survey conducted in November 2023, 78 percent of respondents stated that public services had deteriorated.5
