Experiential Learning Content

The content will include all of the following:

A. Work on an International Strategy Consulting Project

Participants will work in teams to conduct an in-depth analysis of a company’s business goals and objectives. The goal of this analysis is to understand if their current practices are in alignment with what they want to achieve. Based on their analysis, they will provide strategic recommendations the company can implement to drive better results.

The consultants will also provide inputs on market research and the competitive landscape so that the company can make well-informed decisions in their
business.

The project will require participants to go out, meet people and businesses, study the market, conduct field observations, establish local contacts, analyse and submit their recommendations. All of this will be done under the expert mentorship of a London Business School or University of Oxford alumni with many years of international corporate experience.

Why an International Strategy Consulting Project

The project is designed to help enhance the employability of the participants. From 2008 to 2019, the consulting field experienced unprecedented growth and was valued at $160 billion globally. the 2021 rate of job growth for consultants is 14%.

The three foremost pure-play firms are McKinsey & Company, Boston Consulting Group, and Bain & Company. Other firms with either well-established or quickly growing strategy consulting practices include Ernst & Young, Deloitte, Accenture, Oliver Wyman, and CapGemini.

Skills learned during the International Strategy Consulting Project

• Quantitative and analytical skills.

• Ability to work under pressure and cope with challenging situations.

• Good teamwork skills.

• Flexibility.

• Understanding of business environments and commercial awareness.

• Problem-solving skills.

• Good interpersonal and communication skills.

B. Visit two local businesses / industries / innovation centres, etc.

In a new country it is important to have a first-hand experience of how businesses operate, what is trending, what can be learned that participants can apply back in their countries, these two visits will be designed to provide just that.

C. Engage with the Startup Ecosystem of the city.

It is extremely important for participants to know what is happening in the startup ecosystem of a country because it is driven by the youth of the country and provides deep insights into the latest innovations, technologies, business models and developments in that country thus providing one of the best sources of information relevant for students.

D. Attend a workshop on International Networking

Everyone talks about the importance of networking but very few resources are available for practically learning and building one’s networking skills. This workshop by a London Business School alum not only provides opportunity to learn networking but participant
are also required to put it in practice in the country they are visiting.

E. Final Project & Assessment

It is not only important to learn, experience, apply in a new country but also to demonstrate what one has learned. The final assessment is designed to assist participants demonstrate all that they have learned and experienced during the programme. The assessment is in the form of an interesting submission of a vlog showcasing the work done, pictures, videos, material collected of local businesses, contacts, visits, etc.
