D3 - actually, not what I said. I said companies have a role beyond making money. that isn't really a statement of fact, more an opinion that any thing that exists and employs people, creates products, and has power plays (whether it intends to or not) a role beyond making money

It doesn’t matter what white people want to hear. The protests aren’t about us, and we shouldn’t try to make them about us and our wants/needs.

Weirdly focused question. White people who used to be consultants but now aren’t, please grant us your unique perspective on institutional racism and police brutality?

Why is a focused question weird? I know what Consulting companies are doing. So I don’t think it’s weird to be interested in the perspective outside consulting. Thanks for your weird take tho

Not a white person, but I'm of the mindset that I want my industry employer to stay away from useless virtue signaling and pandering and focus on work.

Totally fine with my coworkers talking about it, but I don't want my employer to pander without concrete actions, as is the case with the majority of firms out there that have jumped on the pandering and virtue signaling bandwagon.

Nothing. Politics should stay out of the workplace

Wait, protesting against racism is a political issue to you? Protesting for human rights is political? Yikes.

Anyway OP, best practice is probably to adopt a stance of listening. You’re not there to pass judgment, you should help other people be heard.

Hi, I am a PhD student and I have recently started preparing for consulting. I have gone through basics of framework and have watched few YouTube videos. I am at the point where I am seeing diminishing returns by studying more books. Anyone willing to help or are there people in the same boat? Would love to connect with potential study/case buddies! TIA!
