Non-MD so it’s hard to find companies that will hire me even though I teach in grad school and headed for my PhD. Any thoughts? Openings?

Dear Partners-
Have any of you switched firms to make P? Worth it? Tips? Have always planned to make at my firm, but my firm isn’t keeping up their end of the deal, so I’m job hunting....

Hey Partners! I accepted a position at another firm and was bumped from manager to Senior consultant level. Could you give me some advice on 3 key things I can focus on to help me re-advance quickly?

For the Partners and really anyone in a leadership position: how do you motivate your people to take initiative? i.e. inferring next steps and taking action without waiting to be explicitly told to

What has been more beneficial to your career and why: specializing in a service offering or an industry?

What was the first thing you did once you become partner? I am assuming heavy pressure on selling more than what you were selling before?

So, Partners... What's your spending breakdown like? Curious to see what expenses y'all have. # of yrs as Partner may also help.

Thanks for sharing! Again, just for fun and curiosity.

(1/2) For those w/ technical backgrounds: how did you develop executive communication skills? I’m a year into MBB (post MBA) and have had really great reviews on client, problem, and team

Partners, what are signs/examples that a project’s leadership is prioritizing the clients needs over the team beyond the normal ‘nature of client service’? Is a convo is worth it?

Partners,

My firm is immature in guiding development planning. I have energy to accelerate to the next level of responsibility.

What evidence distinguishes an analyst as ready for the next level?

Does the concept of local and high value role exist is Deloitte, Accenture or PWC?... been consulting for 13 yrs

Partners, what's been the impact to ongoing sales conversations? Do you think we're all screwed for the year?

Hiya! I was wondering if anyone here has any good recommendations in terms of books or learning material that I can pick up to learn about sales and marketing relevant to the consulting industry?

Partners: where do your clients come from? Do you spend more time acquiring new clients or using your network from past projects/peers?

Great discussion board

D 🐠, what was your take home in first year as principal? I assume you all get roughly 350 units and have to finance your buy in. What does that leave for your monthly draw? And after your insurance?
