Have you been living in PowerPoint?
After nine years in management consulting, I didn't think there were any other career options other then...well...more consulting. This couldn't be further from the truth. As CEO of ECA-Partners (formerly ex-consultants agency), I have a unique opportunity to work with thousands of people every year that started their career in consulting, and now do something different.
We interview guests every week that might have started in consulting, but have moved on to other careers. From private equity to corporate strategy, we will talk with interesting guests to help you navigate life after powerpoint!
