Episode 121: Career Advice From The Best in the Business Round 7

If you’re a regular listener to the Climb in Consulting podcast, you’ll know that every few months we like to switch things up, deviating from our usual interview format to bring you something a little different - and this episode is exactly that! New to Climb In Consulting? Then let us explain. Every episode, our guests offer fantastic insights and advice, particularly when they’re answering one very important question that we ask everyone who comes on the show: ‘What one piece of advice would you give to someone just starting their career in consulting, someone at Manager level and someone approaching Partner?’ Because our guests come from such a wide range of backgrounds, and have followed many different consulting career paths, they all have their own unique perspective on this question, and always provide varied and insightful responses. Many of our listeners have told us that they love listening to these answers, which is why we put them all together in our special round-up shows. In today’s episode, you’ll hear from a selection of guests from the past eight months of Climb In Consulting, as they all draw on their individual experiences to bring you valuable insights on how to build a successful consulting career. In this episode, you’ll be hearing from: Keith Burgess - Head of Management Consulting Development Curriculum EMEA at IBM Michael Simmonds & Manfred Abraham – Co-CEOs at Yonder Consulting Andrew Zimmerman – CEO at Journey Catherine Crump - Managing Director at Wired Consulting Heather Townsend – Best Selling Author & Global Expert on Making Partner Ashley Chapman – CEO at inlumi James O'Sullivan - CEO at Project One Consulting Chris Gant - Managing Partner at Wunderman Thompson Consulting There’s so much great advice featured in this episode, and we’re sure you’ll get a lot out of it, no matter what stage you’re at in your career.
