(IMO: McKinsey/'The Firm' is A Corporation of ENABLERS
By only working with the CEOs that were willing to follow The Firm/ McKinsey advise and by only associating with the Powerful, just like "The Family" gives them POWER TOO)

The Firm/McKinsey & Company Consuting
As a genie in a bottle
Your wish is their command
But be careful what you wish for
For they will help you get your wish but
The Firm is not willing to take on any of the consequences of fulfilling the goal.

But laws of nature don't work like that
Just like the, Nuremberg Trials.
Everyone that participated no matter the role you played
is guilty, even if you were just following orders

Bower established a Set of Rules:
🔸️consultants should put the interests of clients before McKinsey's revenues
🔸️not discuss client affairs
🔸️tell the truth even if it means challenging the client's opinion
🔸️only perform work that is both necessary & McKinsey can do well

Bower created the firm's principle of only working with CEOs, which was later expanded to CEOs of subsidiaries and divisions. He also created McKinsey's principle of only working with clients the firm felt would follow its advice.
Bower also established the firm's language.[33] McKinsey calls itself "The Firm" and its employees "members".[15][18] McKinsey says its consultants are not motivated by money.[18] McKinsey & Company tries to keep a "very low profile public image".[36]
The firm has a policy against discussing specific client situations.[34] The firm says it does not advertise, though it did advertise allegedly for recruitment purposes in TIME Magazine in 1966.[15] Members are not supposed to "sell" their services.
McKinsey's consultants are expected to become a part of the community and recruit clients from church, charitable foundations, board positions and other community involvements
A 1993 profile story in Fortune magazine said McKinsey & Company was "the most well-known, most secretive, most high-priced, most prestigious, most consistently successful, most envied, most trusted, most disliked management consulting firm on earth".
According to BusinessWeek the firm is "ridiculed, reviled, or revered depending on one's perspective".
McKinsey's culture has often been compared to religion, because of the influence, loyalty and zeal of its members

Fortune magazine said partners talk to each other with "a sense of personal affection and admiration".An article in The News Observer said McKinsey's internal culture was "collegiate and ruthlessly competitive" and has been described as arrogant.
The Wall Street Journal said McKinsey is seen as "elite, loyal & secretive". According to Reuters, it has a "button-down culture" focused on "playing by the rules". Per BusinessWeek, some consultants say the firm has strayed from its original values as it increased in size.
The Guardian said at McKinsey "hours are long, expectations high and failure not acceptable".
