Be inspired. Make a difference.

McKinsey passionately believes in developing outstanding female leaders and promoting gender diversity, both at our firm and in the world at large. We invite you to take the next step of your own leadership journey with us.

Next Generation Women Leaders history

The first Next Generation Women Leaders (NGWL) event took place in Paris in 2012. The event brought together individuals who self-identify as women from across Europe and the Middle East who enjoyed three days of inspirational workshops, discussions, and networking.

During our NGWL events attendees explore the importance of women in leadership and refine their own leadership skills. Over the years we have run additional initiatives to further support women’s leadership under the NGWL umbrella including events in Europe, North America, South America and Asia.

We are looking to get to know women who:

have an outstanding record of academic and/or professional achievements
have a proven record of leadership in an academic and/or professional setting
thrive when working with other people
actively seek ways to maximize their own potential
enjoy problem solving and creative thinking
want to use their talents to make positive changes in their lives and their communities
