What will it take to boost Latino econom...

McKinsey & Company
About this episode
By 2060, 30 percent of the US labor force will be Latino. It's a massive cohort, that given greater support, could potentially create economic opportunities not just for individuals and families in this demographic but also for the whole country. McKinsey senior partner Lucy Pérez joins executive editor Roberta Fusaro in conversation.

Following, we'll hear from McKinsey data scientist Nimit Patel about how when he came to McKinsey he was encouraged to take a "random walk."

Theme music for The McKinsey Podcast was composed and performed by Joy Ngiaw.
