Is it common for M2s to be promoted to SM at Accenture — in other words, how frequent can people bypass the M3 level? And what are the key factors / metrics that need to be in place for someone to be considered promo ready? Thx

It is more common for you to get accelerated progression from M1 -> M3 and to promote to SM in 2 years.

Still attainable in 2 years but you have to be a rockstar. Selling work, maintain high level executive relationships, contribute to your practice. Those things as a M can solidify your story for SM promo in 2 years

Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts on this. I’m joining ACN next week (M level) and I’m super excited about it and want to position myself for success. I have a little over 10 YOE between consulting and industry and had second thoughts that maybe I should have pursued SM right away. In any case, thanks again for your help!

Seen it twice. A little shocked considering one was tossed from a key account.
