The In-company consultancy project

is for most participants the most exhilarating part of the programme.  It is a unique opportunity for participants to re-integrate themselves in a real business environment and apply the knowledge, skills and experience they have acquired during the programme. Faced with a current, real business problem or strategic question, participants must prepare a plan of action, analyse the situation, develop a series of options and evaluate these to produce recommendations that will work!
