What is the aim of this course?

Management Consulting is a great starting point for your career. It gives you a lot of knowledge and opens a lot of doors. However, if you want to make the most out of management consulting, you should actively manage your career and do a little bit of planning as well as strategic thinking.

This course is based on my 15 years of experience as a consultant in top consulting firms and as a Board Member responsible for strategy, performance improvement, and turn-arounds in the biggest firms from Retail, FMCG, SMG, B2B, and services sectors that I worked for. I have carried out or supervised over 90 different performance improvement projects in different industries that generated a total of 2 billion additional EBITDA. On the basis of what you will find in this course, I have trained in person over 100 consultants, business analysts, and managers who now are Partners in PE and VC funds, Investment Directors and Business Analysts in PE and VC, Operational Directors, COO, CRO, CEO, Directors in Consulting Companies, Board Members, etc. On top of that my courses on Udemy were already taken by more than 234 000 students including people working in EY, McKinsey, Walmart, Booz Allen Hamilton, Adidas, Naspers, Alvarez & Marsal, PwC, Dell, Walgreens, Orange, and many others.

I teach through case studies, so you will have a lot of lectures showing examples of analyses, and tools that we use. To every lecture, you will find attached the Excels as well as additional presentations, and materials shown in the lectures so as a part of this course you will also get a library of ready-made analyses that can, with certain modifications, be applied by you or your team in your work.

Why have I decided to create this course?

Managing a career in consulting is pretty difficult as you have plenty of options and no clear path that will lead you to success. Most people in consulting struggle to pick the optimal for them path and don’t know to move forward fast. This may lead to huge frustration and a lot of inefficiencies.

Therefore, I have decided to create this course that will help students manage their careers in consulting.

Thanks to this course, you will know what to do to be a successful Management Consultant and you will master how to set and achieve goals. On top of that, you will also learn how to manage your career efficiently.

To sum it up, I believe that if you want to become a world-class Management Consultant or Business Analyst you have to have a pretty decent understanding of how to manage your career in consulting. That is why, I highly recommend this course to Management Consultants or Business Analysts, The course will help you manage your career in consulting firms including, EY, Deloitte, McKinsey, BCG, Bain, and other top consulting firms.
