About the role
This is a practice leadership interview, not only a test of case-solving technique. The panel is assessing whether you can shape demand, advise senior executives, win work on sensible terms and build a strong team that delivers consistently without relying on one leader.
How to prepare
- Define the client problems and sectors where you have the strongest credible point of view.
- Prepare examples that connect relationship building to qualified pipeline and delivered work.
- Review a pricing or pursuit decision where you protected value or walked away.
- Choose a high-stakes executive decision where your counsel materially changed the outcome.
- Be ready to explain how you develop directors and managers into independent commercial leaders.
Common mistakes
- Talking only about delivery history and offering no credible growth thesis.
- Equating a large pipeline with profitable, winnable work.
- Claiming client relationships without explaining the trust and outcomes behind them.
- Treating talent development as staffing rather than a core practice responsibility.
