Effective Meetings for Management Consultants & Analysts




Effective Meetings for Management Consultants & Analysts

What is the aim of this course?

During consulting projects, you will be doing plenty of interviews and meetings. In the beginning, you may find them very stressful and challenging, especially, when you have to talk with directors, managers that are much older than you, and that has a much bigger experience than you. Luckily, there are a lot of interesting techniques that will help you conduct efficiently interviews and meetings during consulting projects.

In this course, I will show you different tips and methods that will help you achieve your goals. Thanks to this course you will learn the following things:

  1. How to prepare and conduct initial interviews during consulting projects

  2. How to conduct regular meetings

  3. How to make sure that your final presentation is a success

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. We have helped numerous firms improve performance by using techniques and frameworks shown in this course. 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 124 000 students including people working in EY, Walmart, Strategy&, Booz Allen Hamilton, Alvarez & Marsal, PwC, Dell, Walgreens, Orange Citigroup, Cisco, IBM, and many others.

I teach through case studies, so you will have a lot of lectures showing examples of analyses, tools that we use. To a lot of lectures, 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 modification, be applied by you or your team in your work.

Why I have decided to create this course

Most consulting firms and universities don’t devote much attention to softer skills related to conducting and managing meetings. Management Consultants also experience some problems due to the big age difference. Most of the people you will have to talk to during consulting projects, are much older than you. Not having the right skills in this area may mean that you will spend too much time on meetings and the quality of data may be low. That’s why I have decided to put the best practices when it comes to interviewing and conducting meetings into this course.

This course will help you conduct efficiently different types of meetings during consulting projects. These skills will prove very useful not only in consulting, but also later on when you become a director or you move on to build your own business. Thanks to this course, you will know what and how to do, during different types of meetings, to achieve your goals.

To sum it up, the course will help you become an expert in conducting meetings on the level of McKinsey, BCG, Bain, PwC, Deloitte, EY, and other top consulting firms. That is why I highly recommend this course to Management Consultants and Business Analysts.

In what way will you benefit from this course?

The course is a practical, step-by-step guide loaded with tones of examples, tricks, hints that will significantly improve the way you conduct meetings. There is little theory – mainly examples, and a lot of tips from my own experience as well as other notable examples worth mentioning. Our intention is that thanks to the course you will learn:

  1. How to prepare and conduct initial interviews during consulting projects

  2. How to conduct regular meetings

  3. How to make sure that your final presentation is a success

You can also ask me any questions either through the discussion field or by messaging me directly.
