Ep 275 Measuring & Managing Value with Tim Koller, Co-Author of McKinsey’s Valuation

Guest: Tim Koller, Partner at McKinsey & Company and Co-Author of Valuation: Measuring and Managing the Value of Companies

For over three decades, Valuation has been the definitive guide to corporate value creation. Called “the best practitioners’ guide to valuation” by the Financial Times and one of “the most influential contemporary books about the world economy” by The Economist, the book has sold over one million copies worldwide.

Now in its 8th edition, Tim Koller and his co-authors bring fresh insights on AI, sustainability, digital transformation, and geopolitics—helping business leaders sharpen their decision-making and balance long-term value creation with the pressures of today’s markets.

In this episode, Tim shares:

  • Why short-term earnings obsession remains the biggest misconception in corporate strategy
  • How AI can help identify groupthink and bias in real time
  • The real impact of tariffs and geopolitics on company valuations
  • How leaders can balance shareholder value with stakeholder needs
  • Why sustainability priorities should be tailored to the unique risks of each industry
  • Lessons from Warren Buffett and contrarian thinkers who resisted market hype
  • What has—and hasn’t—changed about being a great CEO since 1990

Tim also reflects on 35 years of writing Valuation, explaining why timeless principles of growth, innovation, and long-term orientation matter more than ever in both stable and volatile times.

About the Guest Tim Koller is a partner at McKinsey’s Denver office and founder of McKinsey’s Strategy and Corporate Finance Insights team. With more than 40 years of consulting experience, he has helped countless executives, boards, and investors navigate complex financial and strategic decisions.
