Next Generation Women Leaders event 2020

Be inspired. Make a difference.

McKinsey invites female students (graduating no later than in 2021) and professionals with fewer than 8 years of experience based in Europe, the Middle East and Africa to join us for our Next Generation Women Leaders event.

We passionately believe in developing outstanding female leaders. We do so every day, internally and with our clients.

Take the next step in your leadership journey and apply to our Next Generation Women Leaders event, to be held May 8-10 in a chateau outside of  Paris.

Application deadline: March 1, 2020.

You will be asked to list up to 2 offices or practices which you would like your application to be reviewed by. We ask that you choose locations to which you have strong ties (e.g., you have lived, studied, or worked) as well as locations for which you are fluent in the local language(s). If you choose an industry or functional practice, make sure you have relevant experience.
 
The selection of offices you choose for this event does not limit your future location options should you apply for a position at McKinsey.
