Top US BCG / MBB Coach - 5,000 sessions |Tech, Platinion, Big 4 | 9/9 personal interviews passed | 95% candidate success

1) Dealing with ambiguity (I thought I was prepared, I thought I knew what it was, I didn’t really)

2) Working and thinking in Powerpoint

3) Handling multiple stakeholders (“bosses”) with different views, availability, communication/visualization preferences, but all equal input/weighting

Yes defenitely the communication or visualization preferences is very helpful in consulting.

Hi,

Agree with the other expert.

I would add:

  1. Importance of prioritization
  2. Management of feedback loops
