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 have an enormous amount of case interview videos, podcasts and articles, and continue to build that library, the largest part of FC & Strategytraining.com is the content for consultants, corporate managers and executives guiding them in solving complex problems to accelerate their careers and make a positive difference in the world. Clients like Bill Graca. FC content is streamed in over 150 countries around the world 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Bill is a remarkable person. He fits our value system, he is a wonderful father and husband, and he works every day to be the best he can be. When we think of the training programs to produce, we often ask ourselves, "What would Bill Graca need, use and find useful for his career, family and community?" *** Sign up for free sample training episodes here: https://www.firmsconsulting.com

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.
