Structure any type of case using an issue tree that will cover the entire solution space and then identify the key drivers of the problem.

Avoid the most common pitfalls that students fall into and learn how to handle the pressure in the interview.

Description

In this workshop, you will learn from Filipe Leal, a Senior McKinsey Consultant. You will learn how elite consultants solve some of the world’s toughest problems — not only for leading businesses, but increasingly for governments and other organisations as well.

Join the students from INSEAD MBA (#1 MBA in the world, according to Financial Times) in preparing for their interviews at the McKinsey Copenhagen Office. The most effective way to prepare for your interview is to learn how to think like a top consultant.

This is an advanced level course. You will benefit the most if you are familiar with the format of the Case Interview. The workshop will help you understand how to structure tough, ambiguous business challenges, identify important issues, deal with all the implications of facts and data, formulate conclusions and recommendations, and how to articulate your thoughts.
