We have just released another Center of Excellence in the Strategy Control Room (Advanced Level).
One-Week Immersion: Consulting Onboarding / Consulting Mastery (744 SLIDES).
A powerful resource to use if you have one week before you're stuffed on a major consulting assignment: strategy, operations, etc. Even if you know nothing about management consulting, you can go through this training, and you will be more prepared than most consultants to operate at the highest standard. If you have a boutique consulting firm and you don't have time to train a new employee, you get them to work through these materials. If you're running a major firm, or a practice within a major firm, and you need to get people up to scratch, this will get them battle-ready within a week.
The 1-week Consulting Onboarding immersion covers crucial topics such as:
