Use business school casebooks. NYU stern, Kellogg and darden are the best imo

Awesome. I will check these out. Thank you for sharing.

Case coach. Stay away from casebooks, as they’re prone to be full of errors and are unnecessarily tricky (not reflective of McKinsey cases)

I've noticed that my coworkers tend to work more on their own than with others, even when they're all in the office. Is this normal? I feel like it would be helpful for everyone to talk about their projects more often—I mean, what if someone else has solved the same problem you're trying to solve already?

Do you feel that in SEO there are too many ways of conducting the same tasks. I have had a string of managers within the past year, it’s starting to get very annoying as each person says method A is wrong and B is right, another manager would have the complete opposite view. Have you had similar experiences when this practice and adjustment begins to interfere with client deliverables.
