What is Management Consulting? (McKinsey, Bain, BCG)

[@thetechpmm]

0:25 What is management consulting? 0:49 What kind of problems do you solve and what kind of projects are they usually? 2:06 What’s the learning curve for a new engagement/project? 3:16 How long are these engagements/projects and how do you know what you’re supposed to do? 4:12 What’s the end deliverable for an engagement/project? 4:53 Monday to Friday. What does that look like? 6:03 What does a typical day look like for a consultant? 7:47 What is your favorite part about being a consultant? 9:03 What is your least favorite? 10:01 Where do consultants end up? How long do they do consulting for and when they leave, why do they leave? 11:30 If you weren’t in consulting what would you be doing?

What a well spoken young woman. Super helpful information!

[@111Econ]

Admit it, you desire her!

[@Jason-se1ke]

Love how articulate she is. She also handled a couple of typical interview questions ("what would you be doing if you weren't doing this?", and "what don't you like about your current job?") in ways that sounded very genuine, and for the latter question -- understandable without being negative.

[@zhangwenxin7023]

What I like most in her is confidence, bringing me power and hope. Thank you!!!

[@jasminfinley3281]

After graduating, I struggled a lot of what I wanted to go into career wise - especially finding what I’m passionate in! Sports medicine and business major here, and consulting is something I can see myself in. Thank you for the informational video! Cheers

Allison is amazing. She's not only smart but also cute and such a professional in her field. ❤️

[@FirmLearning]

Yes can relate to that.. What I definitely underestimated when joining McKinsey 6 years ago was how important Slide Writing skills are. In Consulting, it is just crucial to be able to work well with PowerPoint. I started my KZbin channel to share my experiences on Slide Writing skills and other related topics. Would love you to check it out! :)

[@ceedubbb]

I’m curious to know how her education prepared her for her career in Consulting.

Yup she fits the consulting mold - vague answers, spend time and money to travel, and rely on a few key experts in your firm to train all the youngsters (who the client is still paying for).

[@rowenang6761]

Thank you for the insight! Alison ‘s information is very helpful ❤️

[@joshuaduca5527]

this one is just really hard that most people can handle this problem and they actually enjoying to working hard as this explanation they tend to be a good and straight forward persons to do their job and make their boss or manager happy for that

Love this girl!❤

[@tanyakonsultan]

Consulting is basicaly helping leader to make decision

[@iterativegrowth]

Alison's sharp!

[@abcmedia5049]

It didn't answer the basic question ie about the need for management consulting firm in the first place : Why does a large corporation need external consultants to give them solutions to their problems, 1) Does their leadership team who have decades of experience in that domain not good enough to brainstorm and solve it themselves. 2) Does those 5 young consultant bring to table some knowledge which their leadership team might not be even aware of. 3) Do corporations hire consultants just for some second unbiased advice, since they can neither seek help from customers nor competitors , so consultants might be a good neutral party for some second advice which their leadership team may decide to go by or reject. Is it so?

[@thedefdefdef]

Yes, yes and yes

[@tinggu1506]

She is bragging like the sales of consulting companies, that’s it. Consultant like her aged are mostly fresh graduate, and literally knows nothing about the real business word. They are purely follow instructions from their Work flows, most of which doesn’t help at all and apply to specific companies.

[@boknows8263]

@@tinggu1506 she can learn things much faster than in a regular company. one year in consulting is equal to several years in a normal traditional company. consulting firm only hire the top students from top universities. Sundar Pichai worked for McKinsey before joining google.

Hi - Can you please help me with courses available in India including International online courses for Strategy/Management Consulting? I am from Finance & Accounting background and I think these courses will provide a lot of help in formulating & executing different strategies to transform F&A function of the company especially in this digital era. Please guide on my understanding as I am fairly new to this topic.
