In this podcast, by the editor, we discuss the very counter-intuitive manner in which McKinsey and BCG partners manage engagements, teams and clients. We present 5 crucial differences which may seem nuanced, but have a powerful ripple effect in managing client relationships. Set in the Brazilian interior, this book follows an engagement team as they assist Goldy, a large Brazilian gold miner, in diagnosing and fixing deep and persistent organisational issues. This book will follow an engagement team over an 8 week assignment and explain how they successfully navigate a challenging client environment, develop hypotheses, build the analyses and provide the final recommendations. It is written so the reader may understand, follow and replicate the process. The book is 252 pages in length and written by former management consulting partners and case leaders. This is the only consulting guide taking readers on a day-by-day and step-by-step journey through a complete engagement. MBA students contemplating a career in management consulting will find this book to a useful companion introduction. Consultants can learn the techniques of the leading management consulting firms. This book contains the 252-page book and a single power point file of the material used in the book.
