How does productivity growth vary across regions and countries? We explore how productivity has fared in 125 countries over the last 25 years and why it’s stalled since the global financial crisis. Advanced economies (Western Europe, North America, and Advanced Asia) have averaged less than 1% productivity growth. Emerging economies have been catching up with advanced economies at different speeds, which we label "lanes" based on their productivity growth rates: ◾ Fast lane (China, India, most of Central and Eastern Europe) with 6% growth ◾ Middle lane with 2.1% growth ◾ Slow lane (largely from Latin America and the Caribbean, sub-Saharan Africa, and the Middle East and North Africa) with 0.3% growth Learn how economies can switch to the fast lane ▶️ mck.co/productivity2024

As world leaders gather in New York for the UN General Assembly this month to assess global progress, it's clear that achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is only possible if we close the gender gap. From eradicating poverty to ensuring sustainable energy, gender parity is not just a goal in itself—SDG 5—but a catalyst for achieving all 17 SDGs. Yet, even in countries that are in the top quartile of gender equality in the workplace like the United States, women still face significant barriers in pay equity, leadership, and workforce participation. In a new Forbes column, MGI director Kweilin Ellingrud shares insights from a new McKinsey & Company and https://mck.co/3XPCwBK report, Women in the Workplace: https://mck.co/3TBtO7Y
