Consulting Methods
Level 1 of the MCI training teaches the most critical skills that every professional and consultant must have in order to be a world-class manager or management consultant: having structured thinking and communication, being able to solve complex problems, obtaining relevant information to make decisions, presenting effectively, and getting alignment from the audience.

- The Pyramid Principle (basis for structured thinking and communication)
- Professional and Ethical Behavior (what it takes to be a trusted advisor)
- Problem Definition (Situation-Complication-Key Question SCQ analysis)
- Approach (Issues analysis and work-plan)
- Data Gathering and Analysis (primary and secondary research)
- Findings and Recommendations Presentation (how to create compelling presentations)
