this was in the comments of one of the videos

A shepherd is tending his flock in a remote pasture when suddenly a shiny red BMW appears. The driver is a young man in an Armani suit, Ferragamo shoes and Polarized sunglasses. He sticks his head out the window and asks the shepherd, “Hey! If I can tell you how many sheep you have in your flock, will you give me one?”

The shepherd looks at him, and agrees.

The driver plugs his cell phone into a laptop and connects it to a GPS and starts a remote body-heat scan of the area. During the process he sends some e-mails. After receiving the answers, he prints a 100 page report on the portable printer in his glove compartment, and proudly announces to the shepherd: “You have exactly 1,478 sheep.”

To which the shepherd answers: “Impressive. You can choose one sheep out of my flock”.

He observes the man pick up an animal and load it into his car. Then the shepherd says: “If I can tell you exactly what your business is, will you give me back my animal?”

“You’re on.” the young man answers.

“You are a Mckinsey consultant,” says the shepherd promptly.

“You are right! How could you possibly guess?” says the man, visibly surprised.

“It wasn’t a guess,” the shepherd replies.

“You drive into my field uninvited. You want me to pay you for a piece of information I already know, you answer questions I haven’t asked, and you know nothing about my business. Now give me back my dog.”

Best/worst line I ever heard from an FIS executive, “We have McKinsey doing our executive strategy, I know some think that should be my job but…” and then proceeds to explain all the decisions weren’t his doing.

The video was very informational! Current actions are making a lot of sense now!

@bv That video is spot on and would be a lot funnier if FIS wasn't their current target.

@bv This made my day for someone to call out exactly who they really are. Put the lipstick on that pig and it is still a pig.

McKinsey and internal strategy teams are nothing but a showman. Slick PowerPoint presentations and no coordination with actual capacity, legacy technology, and capital investment to actually achieve anything meaningful or successfully. Smoke and mirrors and a lot of hot air. Worthless!
