Learn executive-level strategy and structured thinking skills, just like at McKinsey, BCG and Bain

Never again will you look at a problem and think “where do I even start!?”

In this course, you’ll learn the same strategic thinking and problem solving techniques used top-tier strategy consulting firms, such as McKinsey, BCG, and Bain.

  3. Validate your problem breakdown using the MECE Principle.
  4. Prioritize and test each hypothesis to identify the root cause and/or optimal solution.
