Welcome! I'm Charlie, a Management Consulting Director with 10 years experience. I create videos to help you accelerate your career. On this channel, you will learn in advance what I learned in Consulting - giving you the opportunity to go even faster than me. You'll also learn how Consulting can set you up to be your own boss, if you want to be.
I'm now my own boss, and I work all over the world. I love it! My ambition is to help you enjoy the kind of success that means you can choose exactly what you work on, when, where and with whom you want to work. Every single day. That's the basis for the best kind of life.
I also loved helping coach and guide Analysts, Consultants and Managers during my time at Accenture, so I will continue doing that for more of you via this channel.
Whether you're a current or aspiring Business Consultant, IT Consultant or Management Consultant, this channel is for you. Let's go!

The truth: Is Consulting not what you expected? Here's what to do about it
มุมมอง 155ปีที่แล้ว
You're a Consultant but you're wondering whether it's the wrong career choice for you. It isn't what you thought it would be. You're no longer excited by the prospect of a future in Consulting. In fact, you really don't like it. You just want a job that inspires you, makes you happy, and pays all the bills. But that's what you thought Consulting would be. So what should you do now?

Exposed: How SALES *really* works in management consultancy (from my 10 years experience)
มุมมอง 176ปีที่แล้ว
Did you know that if you join Consulting, you'll end up with some sort of sales target? Sales in consulting is largely done by Consultants themselves, even though consultancies also have dedicated sales teams. In this video I talk about 1) which roles are responsible for selling consulting services, 2) the types of sales that are done in consulting, 3) how individuals, departments and consultin...

Instagram vs Reality: Do Consultants actually provide any value to clients?
มุมมอง 762 ปีที่แล้ว
Listen up, trolls! Hate consultants? Management Consultants often take a lot of flak - and it's worth knowing what bad things people say, and whether there's any validity in it, before you either join the career or join the commentary! In this video, which was actually inspired by some comments I recently received from trolls, I step through 12 of the most common bad things people say about Con...
Instagram vs Reality: this is how Consultants *really* build Plans
มุมมอง 1482 ปีที่แล้ว
Building a realistic plan that helps you hold yourself and others to account requires proper experience. If you're a management consultant, business consultant or IT consultant, you'll build plans all the time, but in careers that don't involve so much project work, maybe less so. When building a plan, you need to know how to estimate the appropriate amount of time it'll take to get things done...
Instagram vs Reality: this is how to *really* get a Consulting job
มุมมอง 902 ปีที่แล้ว
Breaking into Accenture, CapGemini and other tech consulting companies isn't always easy - and parts of it can be intimidating, especially with limited or no consulting experience. It can make you feel like you shouldn't apply, or that even if you did apply, it might be a waste of your time.

The Instagram vs Reality of Consulting
มุมมอง 1.7K2 ปีที่แล้ว
The grass is always greener, right? From the outside, there are some nice shiny perceptions of Management Consulting - and whilst there is some truth to them, there is also the reality. In this video, I cover the day to day realities of being a Consultant - including things like travel, management, project roles, advising clients, finances and lifestyle. By the end of the video, you'll have a s...
Instagram vs Reality: constructive feedback doesn't have to be difficult

Some of the best and worst things about work can be the people. Where you don't have a positive working relationship with a colleague, a boss, or a direct report, it can negatively impact how you feel at work.

Instagram vs Reality: Would I choose Consulting again or do I regret it, 10 years later?
มุมมอง 832 ปีที่แล้ว
Perhaps you're thinking of joining Consulting, or maybe you've already joined and you're considering leaving already - either way, it could be helpful to hear whether someone who spent their first 10 years in Consulting would make the same choice again given the opportunity.

Really insightful thank you. Just what I was looking for.
Thanks for your videos!
You’re welcome!
@@consultant_explorer You are no more publishing new videos. Please don’t be discouraged if this was the case
I've been watching so many videos from this channel. Wish you still posted
Can do more in the future - let me know what questions you still have and I can see what I can do :) Thanks for the feedback!
@consultant_explorer Thank you!! I'm going to be starting a new role as a consultant and I'd appreciate more videos on technical skills for juniors to focus on and how to avoid mistakes.
do you need investment
Currently, I am using chargeable charge code and use that to fill time sheet and my utilization is 100% now but the thing is I hardlocked to the project on jun2022 till now I am not onboarded to client account and because of that no work assigned in my name.... Because I am fresher So that's why I stucked in confusion can you suggest what is happening with me.I am totally clueless.. Can u please help me on this🙏
Hi Rahul, if I understand correctly your time sheet is auto-filled and locked to a project that you’re not working on? If this is the case, it might be that your senior team has formally assigned you but the project hasn’t started yet (they’re still negotiating or there’s some dependency that needs to be resolved first). If this is the case, you will just need to wait until the project starts (try and use the “free” time to do training while you wait). The other option is that there’s been a mistake and you’ve been incorrectly assigned in the system. If this is the case, you need to speak to your staffing manager to ask them to help unassign and unlock you. I suggest you speak to your staffing manager anyway and ask why you’re locked to this charge code in the first place.
Thank you a lot for sharing such a realistic process of how consultants add values to growth acquisition of a global company. I would love to follow for more video ahead!!! Big thump up <3
Really pleased you found it helpful! Thanks for subscribing 😊
Hello Charlie, I really appreciate your work. The Content is super amazing and very informative. However, you seem to be inconsistent in the content post and Video editing. I know you're swamped with work and have busy days. So for these reasons, I want to be part of this journey and would like to assist you in all aspects of social media growth from editing to creativity. My experience will surely save days-hours of time and effort. Please let me know when you are available to discuss this.
cool!
Loved it! Thanks
Any tips on how to comprehend new topics? Being in tech consulting, there's always something new that client demands to present PoV on
Yes - always know 1) how to search all existing materials your colleagues have already created, 2) how to find the right expert for a given topic, 3) why that client is asking (because it helps you position the POV) and 4) which online sources are credible/respected enough to use in research
Hi, I found your content super informative and helpful. I've been watching your TH-cam videos from a month now and I'm really enjoying every single minute of videos. However I found some back points in your videos and content that may cause serious impact to your growth. I have some feedback for your channel and these will surely helpful to your creator journey.

Thank you! Working hard on high quality content has been my priority so far. Hopefully TH-cam recognises that soon. Your engagement helps with that, so thank you!
Damn this video really nails it on the head! So true!!
Great! Thanks for your comment! You must work in Consulting? 🙂
Yep I currently am in consulting! Watching some videos to remind myself why I got into it 😂
As always, thank you for your great content!
Thanks Charlie, these have been really helpful. I am currently moving from industry to strategy consulting at acc, so learning about chargeability and finding roles within the firm is just great!
That’s great feedback and best of luck with your move! Let me know if there are other topics that would be helpful to cover too. Which career level are you?

Thank you for the feedback! That’s great to hear. If there are any topics specifically you want more of, let me know. I’ll be guided by what is most helpful.
Bro can you make a video on mba/mim programs. I'm currently in my undergrad and I don't know shit on how to get into like big b-schools.dor access to consulting jobs.
You don’t need an MBA/MIM to land a consulting job - just a good result in your undergrad and ideally some sort of work experience and extracurriculars at uni. Check my “how to get into management consulting” playlist for my tips 👍
Really good! Thanks
