Modules Overview

Consulting 101 is developed to give the opportunity to spend 4 months as a consultant receiving the same kind of training and coaching as a supplement to your current job. It contains the core elements of the consulting toolbox - both in terms of Tackle & Solve and Engage & Mobilise. 

During all modules we will be working on cases together - applying the learning directly to actual challenges.
