Special episode: Climate adaptation is one key theme at COP 29

Credit and financial-services organizations are using AI to reshape their offerings and interactions with consumers. But as Will Lansing, CEO of FICO, explains, mastering the technology is only one part of a broader transformation story for the company and the industry. “Leadership comes from followership,” he says. “It comes from people believing in the mission.” And that level of company-wide conviction is critical if executives want to solve some of AI’s hardest problems: explainability, fairness, and trust. On this episode of The McKinsey Podcast, Lansing speaks with McKinsey Senior Partner and North America Chair Eric Kutcher about what it will take to maintain FICO’s 70-year mission of enabling impartial lending, how the company can address emerging AI regulation, and how it can get the most from its data.

In this recurring series on The McKinsey Podcast, Kutcher speaks with top CEOs about the practice of leadership.

For decades, food and beverage companies could count on population growth and geographic expansion to create results. That engine has sputtered out, and investors have punished the sector for it—the industry shed nearly $1 trillion in enterprise value. On this episode of The McKinsey Podcast, Senior Partners Duncan Miller and Frank Sänger speak with Editorial Director Roberta Fusaro about what’s behind the massive valuation drop, why the industry’s old moat—scale and brand loyalty—no longer holds, and why leaders in food and beverage should view AI not just as a cost-cutting tool but as the engine that funds growth itself.
