Apprenticeship gets a makeover

McKinsey & Company
About this episode
In this episode of The McKinsey Podcast, Lisa Christensen, a McKinsey director of learning and McKinsey partner Tony Gambell speak with McKinsey executive editor Roberta Fusaro about what apprenticeship looks like in today’s organizations and how an intentional two-way learning environment can help individuals and teams tackle problems more effectively to meet their performance goals.

After, we also hear from McKinsey senior partner Robert Palter, featured in our My Rookie Moments series, about the valuable lesson he learned from his boss when confronted with a difficult client's bad idea.

Theme music written, produced and performed by Joy Ngiaw.
