Show Notes

In this episode, we dive into the art and science of creating consulting storyboards early in a strategy study. We'll address a thoughtful question from Henry, a subscriber, about how consultants at firms like McKinsey, etc. can prepare storyboards so quickly without pre-determined answers.

You'll learn:

- Why starting with the objective function is key. - How decision trees, hypotheses, and targeted analyses guide our approach. - Common mistakes in communication and how to avoid them.
