Roberta Fusaro is Editorial Director at McKinsey & Company and a host of The McKinsey Podcast. Promoted to a wiki entity page on 4 July 2026 after her second appearance as a named editorial/host figure across McKinsey Podcast sources — first credited (body prose only) on 2026-06-18-ramaswamy-mckinsey-every-company-software-company, then as the active on-camera interviewer on 2026-07-01-bello-mckinsey-podcast-serial-builder-advantage.
Role in the wiki
- 2026-07-01-bello-mckinsey-podcast-serial-builder-advantage — interviewer, in conversation with Jason Bello (McKinsey Senior Partner) on corporate venture building, the serial-builder advantage, and AI’s effect on venture-building economics.
- 2026-06-18-ramaswamy-mckinsey-every-company-software-company — credited alongside Lucia Rahilly in the channel’s editorial sign-off; not the on-camera interviewer for that episode (Eric Kutcher interviewed Sridhar Ramaswamy).
Interviewing style observable (Bello 2026)
- Anchors questions in specific reported numbers (e.g. the $125M→$77M break-even cost shift) and asks the interviewee to explain the driving mechanism.
- Uses concrete framing devices to surface counterarguments (e.g. explicitly voicing the skeptical leader’s “it’s just not the right time” objection) rather than only asking open-ended questions.
- Closes on a personal/reflective note (asks Bello which of his built businesses he’s most proud of) — a consistent McKinsey Podcast structural beat.
Open questions
- Co-host relationship with Lucia Rahilly — both names appear in the stock sign-off outro of at least two episodes; unclear whether they alternate as primary interviewer per episode or one is a fixed sign-off co-host regardless of who conducts the interview. Refine as more McKinsey Podcast episodes are ingested.
