About the Course

This is the #5 course in the specialization on management consulting. In the previous 4 courses, we’ve learned how consultants break down problems with tools and logical thinking. Now, it’s time to bring all the parts together into consulting-quality presentations and deliverables. Every consulting project is different, and yet, the final presentation will have many of the same elements: • Clear alignment among the stakeholders on the project goals • Understanding on the consulting approach, assumptions, and decisions • Thoughtful progression of ideas that “brings the audience along” • Well-constructed PowerPoint slides (or excel model) which tell a clear story • Impactful use of graphs, tables, data visualization • Persuasive and authoritative delivery style...

I highly recommend this specialization. Great practical real-world tips, tricks, and advice. But more importantly, it will change your thinking and help you adopt the mindset of a consultant.

I enjoyed this course a lot. All of these courses have had overlap to my current workplace and the job descriptions of positions I have recently applied for. This one specifically was something I have always had high interest in, and I believe has given me a great perspective of how to think when making presentations. In fact, I have already referenced some of these ideas in current data visualization conversations. I think even this course getting me to engage more in presentations is a wonderful positive from completing this course.

I recently completed the "Storytelling in Management Consulting" course by John Kim on Coursera, and it has been an exceptional experience. As a new Senior Consultant at PwC India, I found this course to be incredibly valuable. John Kim's teaching style is engaging and clear, making complex storytelling techniques accessible and practical. The course content is well-structured, with a perfect blend of theory and real-world examples that illustrate the power of storytelling in consulting. One of the highlights for me was learning how to craft compelling narratives that resonate with clients and stakeholders. I highly recommend this course to anyone in the consulting field, whether you're just starting out or looking to enhance your communication skills. It has significantly boosted my confidence and effectiveness in my role.

This specialization has been so valuable to me. I have done a bit of internal consulting in the past, but every few years I want to expand myself. This time I want to make a transition from learning and development into the space where AI and humans intersect, such as governance. I needed some inspiration, validation, good resources, and a mentor I can look up to. John Kim has great content. His authenticity, warmth, and willingness to help even beyond the courses really set this experience apart from other courses I have taken through Coursera.

I found the specialization to be very clear and well-structured. The steps and "buckets" used by the instructor made it easy to understand and engage with the topics. The external resources provided were incredibly helpful, and the stories shared added valuable context and insight. Overall, this course made complex concepts accessible and enjoyable to learn.

This is such an insightful course. Though the name of the course is "Presentations and storytelling", it covers how to draft proposals and statement of work, frameworks to show insights, how to use graphs, storyboarding, and what not. A very detailed course. I encourage everyone seeing this review to enroll in this course.

Very enlightening. Tips are very clear and direct. There's a lot of knowledge that can be applied to more than one job, studies and so on. The key is to do a good job, and to create a presentation that really suits. For me, a person who's not very good at making presentations, the course has been very useful.

Great content, but have to mention that John Kim is his own best example. I don't think I've ever seen anyone use hand gestures as effectively. I enjoyed watching every video in this specialization. He kept me engaged and entertained.
