Would healthcare VC’s and boutique healthcare strategy firms be interested in what I have to offer? I have multiple years of acute care experience as an RN and now have experience as an implementation consultant but it seems like these firms only want MBA’s or DR’s. Should I get some strategy experience first or what’s the best move here?

You will likely need strategy experience first.

VC seems a very very very very very long shot (feel free to add more verys). Could probably get into a less prestigious boutique strategy firm. Once you’re in and do well, you could lateral to a more prestigious firm after a year or two.

Perhaps you can move to a boutique strategy firm. The VC might be a stretch as they only typically higher MD/PhDs with consulting experience

Hi All,

Was just told to "grow our ESG/CSR" practice at a regional consulting firm, due to my recent grad certification in sustainable biz strategy. Wondering where I should focus us as a services industry for big impact: we have a large product innovation, digital engineering area, and know in the past we've had a lot of lip service to clients and only recorded ESG for their compliance.

Hoping to make a big difference and include CSR/Sust audits and projects beyond for our clients! Any tips?
