In this client documentary you will spend some time with a great client of over 4 years, Bill Graca, and his wonderful family. Bill is a management consultant and discusses his career journey. He talks about the way he has used Firmsconsulting content to both improve his work for clients and the community, and help his firm become more successful. We hope by meeting our clients and learning from their experiences you can increase the value from our library of training programs. Another reason we are introducing this series is we hope that every FC member will be able to find an FC Insider showcased in this series with whom they can particularly relate and learn from. For many members, it is difficult to emulate a partner because the gap in development (and age difference) is so high. Meeting real FC Insiders who are closer to most members’ age and career development stage will hopefully help each member to find some practical advice, guidance, and inspiration that will make a material difference. While we hav

We recently had a coaching session with a client who could become a #McKinsey Principal in about 12 to 24 months. He is currently a McKinsey Associate Principal and has been a long-time client of FIRMSconsulting. He joined our #caseinterview coaching program when he was at Harvard completing an #MBA and we helped him join McKinsey as an associate. This is our 7th year of coaching him and he is a wonderful young man. In this podcast, we are going to summarize some critical advice we offered him, and other McKinsey Principal-level coaching clients, about moving from associate principal to becoming a McKinsey Principal and, thereafter, McKinsey Director.

Every now and then, someone comes along and makes the subject of management both fun and insightful. That’s what Bill Matassoni has done in his memoir—a combination of compelling stories and contrarian substance—that covers his forty-year career selling what he calls “ephemeral things.” In addition to the memoir, Bill plays host to a series of videos that are entertaining, irreverent, and filled with his conviction that marketing is the primary driver of progress in both commercial and social markets. We will soon release Bill Matassoni's memoir and documentary series.

In this detailed episode we discuss the steps we took to achieve our unprecedented 80% McKinsey & BCG placement rate. This means of all the clients we have admitted, 80% have joined McKinsey or BCG. The remaining 20% have joined other consulting firms, banks, PE, VC, technology firms etc. Firmsconsulting mainly admits candidates with very challenging backgrounds. We seek out clients who have potential but have not always had the opportunity to realize that potential. Therefore, our very high placement rate is not due to having naturally stronger clients. We use advanced and proprietary teaching techniques to bring out the best in clients who are not an obvious fit for McKinsey. This episode will discuss some of those techniques.

Since this is the time of year when FC members are going to be negotiating salaries, attending case interviews and anxiously making decisions, we thought it is a good idea to once again reflect on ethics and values. At times like these many sometimes feel that if they could just cut this corner now, everything will be OK... We want to provide some context for how to make decisions that will not only make you feel better in the long term, but will actually leave you better off financially. In this episode we use some interesting anecdotes from Firmsconsulting to articulate these points. If you genuinely find our podcasts useful, we would sincerely appreciate you leaving a genuine review on iTunes.
