Dear Svenja,
development is key when joining Consulting, so great that you asked :) Here are some insights into our development offers:
1. Approach and hands on experience: We believe you develop best by experience on the job, followed by individual feedback and coaching. The last building block is “classical” training which helps you to get news insights, skills, methodolodies that develop best when again put into practice
2. Coaching and feedback: Every consultant has a dedicated Guidance and Development manager. He/she helps you to propel your career to the next level with detailed feedback and coaching meetings every 6 weeks. Their job is to support your development, be there for you and guide you through every challenge and successes along the way. Of course, you get constructive feedback on spot on the projects, so the learning effects are immediate.
3. Trainings portfolio: We have a trainings curriculum tailored to Consulting which covers areas such as: consulting basics (projekt management, stakeholder management), communication (pyramid principle), energy industry know-how, and much more! On demand, it's also possible to engage in individual trainings like support from a professional coach or specific know-how trainings.
4. Your buddy: When you start, your buddy is there for you when you need him or her. Our buddys support new joiners with every even so small question, so you quickly find your way around - not only professionally, but also personally. We are are close team, helping each other where we can.
5. Promotion circles: Every 6 months our Consultants' individual development is assessed. After our so called “Guidance and Development Circles” you get together with your GD manager to discuss your strengths, development areas and career goals and steps. You can also be nominated and chosen for promotion in course of those circles!
