Senior Consultant

Many thanks for your question. Generally speaking, I have to say that no two days in the life of a consultant are the same. The reason for this is, of course, the different project set-ups, especially with regard to traveling. 

Personally, I always start the day with a good breakfast. When you're in a hotel with the team, it's always nice to start the day together and just have a chat with the team. The rule is usually: No discussion of project content. :) Afterwards, we drive to the customer or the office together. 

Regardless of whether you're on site or at home, I usually plan my day, look at what deadlines are coming up or what work results I want to achieve. Then there is usually a check-in meeting for the project team at around 9 am. Sometimes the client is also present. Here we discuss the most important deadlines and milestones in the project and set our goals for the day. 

During the morning, we normally have alignment meetings with the client or work on our work packages. If you sit together with the team at the customer's or in the office, you usually have lunch together. 

In the afternoon you have time to work again or to talk to the customer. We officially end the working day with the check-out appointment, in which we reflect again on the current status, what may not have worked out or what else has come in from the customer during the day. Afterwards, we usually go out for dinner together for on-site projects and then back to the hotel.
