Testimonials

Former Head of Defence and Security Consulting, PA Consulting Group
"I’ve supported three YCC assignment teams since retiring from the consulting industry in 2022. Above all, I’ve found it immensely rewarding to witness each team’s extraordinary rate of progress as they’ve scoped out the challenge, conducted their research, and drawn insightful business conclusions wrapped in a slick, executive-ready client presentation. I’ve found that the most valuable approach is operate exactly as I would have as a partner, supervising a number of busy assignments. First, to provide a formal weekly ‘checkpoint’ to help the team structure their approach and maintain momentum. Second, to provide a blend of challenge and coaching: challenge to help the students think beyond their first ideas; and coaching to help them evaluate the relevance and quality of their insights from a senior client’s perspective. It is really satisfying to dress rehearse their final presentations and hear the brilliant client reactions! "
