Strategy consulting is non recurring, non process oriented, high
stakes and high visibility work.
Successful consultants help clients who are bright, successful,
demanding and very knowledgeable about their industry. The consultants
need to be creative and able to solve complex problems. They have
to master and go beyond the analytics, into the solution and synthesis
stage. They need to be able to prioritize their work, dedicate
their full energy to a project, apply common sense as well as
business acumen to intricate situations, communicate clearly and
positively to the clients within complex organizations.
Ultimately, their assistance has to translate into tangible and
significant result improvements for clients.
They are rewarded by a stimulating work environment, strong growth
potential, attractive remuneration, recognition by peers and by
the clients, and by the exhilarating feeling of doing a great
job and learning constantly.
This is a profession where some relatively young men and women
get the opportunity to make a direct impact on major changes and
to develop much more rapidly than their peers working in other
professional environments.
