Unlocking Operational Evolution: The Zero-Basing Philosophy
Listen now
Description
Zero-basing could be said to have an image problem, with a perceived sole focus on cost-cutting. This episode of McKinsey Talks Operations dispels some of the myths about this approach and looks at how it can become a dynamic philosophy that transcends traditional cost-cutting, offering leaders newfound visibility into their operations, investments, and resources. Join host Daphne Luchtenberg with experts Carey Mignerey, Denis Fomin, and Steve Frazier as they discuss the transformative potential of zero basing and its role in reshaping organizational growth strategies, and how start-ups and disruptor companies are leading the way by maintaining a zero-basing mentality throughout their evolution.
