What is the aim of this course?
Management Consultants are forced to learn new things quickly on almost any project. Quite often you advise customers from an industry that is totally new to you. That’s why Management Consultants were forced to develop a special approach to learning. This approach enables them to become experts in weeks, or months instead of years. Regardless of what you do, you can use these methods to improve your learning skills and advance faster in your career. In this course, I will teach you how to learn faster the right things. Management Consulting Hacks will help you master fast industries, tools, areas, or skills.
In the course you will learn the following things:
How to select the right things to learn
How to learn things faster
How to plan and achieve your goals
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 in total of 2 billion of 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 255 000 students including people working in EY, 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 (in additional resources) the Excels as well as additional presentations, 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?
Learning is an ongoing process. This will be especially true if the environment in which you work constantly changes. Additionally, in businesses like consulting you will be dealing with totally new industries every 1 to 6 months. The need to learn new things may lead to huge frustration and will require for a lot of time if you don’t you the right techniques. Many people struggle also with selecting the right topics for further studies.
Therefore, I have decided to create this course that will help students learn faster and the right things. The course will teach you how to be selective when it comes to learning and which method will be the most useful in your situation. On top of that, you will also master an approach that will help you achieve any goals. This will help you not only in consulting but also in any industry, or topic that you decide to specialize in.
To sum it up, I believe that if you want to become a world-class Management Consultant or Business Analyst you have to know how to learn fast new things. That is why, I highly recommend this course to Management Consultants or Business Analysts, but also students who want to increase the productivity of learning. The course will help you learn fast on the level of McKinsey, BCG, Bain, and other top consulting firms.
