Most people think consulting trains you in industries or analytics.

That's not the real advantage.

In this episode of Consulting Unpacked, Jenny Rae breaks down the skill consultants master at the world's top firms – complex project management – and the 10 principles that separate average operators from the people who consistently deliver under pressure.

You'll learn:

  • Why scope clarity (and what you're not doing) matters more than the project plan itself
  • How consultants align stakeholders, escalate issues, and build quality into every phase
  • The mindset shift that makes project management a career accelerator in any industry
