Scott co-leads McKinsey & Company's global CEO and Board Excellence practice as part of his position as a Senior Partner in the firm's Southern California office. A Mechanical Engineer by training, he spent most of his early consulting years working on business strategy and operational topics, until his life was turned upside down by his second child who was born with profound special needs. After taking time off to tend to his family, Scott returned to McKinsey with the clarity to bring the best of psychology, social science, and the field of human potential into the workplace. Ten years later, Scott coauthored the Inc.com bestseller, Beyond Performance: How Great Organizations Build Ultimate Competitive Advantage (Wiley, 2011). He has since written six more books on leadership and organization effectiveness, including his latest, the New York Times bestseller, CEO Excellence: The Six Mindsets That Distinguish the Best Leaders from the Rest. He has also published over fifty articles for the Harvard Business Review, Forbes, Chief Executive Magazine, The Conference Board, Inc.com, and the McKinsey Quarterly, and is a featured speaker at multiple CEO roundtables and guest lecturer at Harvard Business School, among many others in the US and around the world. The bulk of his time, however, is spent directly counselling CEOs and their teams on maximizing the performance of their organizations. Outside of McKinsey, Scott is a cofounder of Digital Divide Data, a multi-award-winning social enterprise. Further afield, Scott is a heavy metal music aficionado featured musician in Rock Camp: The Movie (2021), has played guitar on multiple movie and TV soundtracks, and is also credited as a songwriter and music and documentary producer. He also loves to travel and is one of a few hundred people in history verified by NomadMania to have traveled to every country in the world. His favorite place, however, is Southern California, where he lives with his family.
