Noticed L.E.K. has roles open for the MBA Veterans conference. I can't go to Atlanta this year, unfortunately.
Anyone here with L.E.K. willing to network and chat? Experience in Engineering design and construction in Oil & Gas since 2014, 1.5 yrs in consulting (ACN) and TAMU MBA in 2022.

Damn you’re thinking about jumping ship from ACN too? 😉

Yeah. I'm not building on what I learned in MBA school, effectively keeping me at an entry level for the time being.
While my school wasn't a T20, it was a significant investment in time and $$$. I've been looking to get on what I call "the other side of business," where the big strategic moves happen that affect the direction of firms rather than just a department (middle management realm). Unfortunately, ACN has not offered the opportunities for this, and the economic climate only made it that more challenging. Getting on strat projects is difficult to rationalize when the bench is full.

They'll be at the Milvet conference in NYC end of Sept. If you can't make that (even if you can), happy to send over the LEK vet contacts attending I've already connected with on Linkedin for you to cold call.

That would be really appreciated. I'm looking for any advantage, no matter how small. Sending applications into the void is not working, lol.
