About the Course

This is the #3 course in the specialization on management consulting. Management consultants excel at solving difficult and complex business problems. How do they do this? Shouldn’t clients know more about their situation than external consultants? Consultants are trained to systematically break down problems into logical pieces, then aggressively pursue answers with data: • Think about the problem broadly; strategy, operations, people, technology • Define the problem clearly; articulate “what does success look like?” • Break the problem into “buckets” so it is easy to understand • Use hypotheses to “guess” your way to the potential answer(s) • Find and clean up messy data; convert the data into useful recommendations...

Goldilocks sort of course, just right length and amount of material as platform to next stage. really enjoyed the teacher also who added value to his written material and kept the interest levels up.

I have lot to appreciate Mr. Kim, the whole course was simplified in way that anyone, who is unknown to the management consulting will change the approach towards it ! great learning and Thanks again

Easy to follow. The speed was a bit slow. Copy paste of text from e.g. Word into the final assignment didn't work well. I had to do lots of reformatting.

The course feels overly repetitive...I am done through 3 modules of the course and most of the stuff is basic stuff... I believe that the course could be cut down to a few points making it crisp and to the point.
