I have received feedback that I’m focusing too much on my own goals for my clients and need to help them focus on their goals instead. What are your best tips for coaching your clients to help them to achieve their goals?

Deloitte India vs Deloitte USI.
Please answer if you have worked for both and have significant first hand experience about the difference in WLB, annual hikes, work culture, any other observations.

Thanks in advance 😃

Joining Accenture Strategy in the Fall – any notable benefits I should be aware of?

Have an interesting scenario. Holiday party season is approaching. At one of our parties (during working hours) there is an optional “talent show.” Employees can win door prizes. We have an entry that is a religious song - like one you would sing in church. I assume we need to let this employee perform this - or we are setting ourselves up for trouble. Likewise, if we permit this song, I assume we cannot compel attendance to the talent show. The talent show is part of a lunch thing.
