Management Consultant

A management consultant helps organizations solve problems and improve performance. You are brought in to look at something specific, such as slow growth, rising costs, or a messy reorganization. You interview employees, analyze data, build models, and present recommendations to leaders, then often help put changes into practice. Projects are usually done in small teams and last weeks or months, so you move between industries and topics fairly often. Much of the work is thinking, writing, and presenting.
