Learn to solve advanced problems in almost any sphere of business in the iX Management Consulting course. Tackling challenges with your peers will give you the ultimate story to tell in interviews.
Problem Definition & Structure
Apply the SMART criteria to potential client problems and break issues down into manageable pieces.
Interview Prep
Get to know the different kinds of interviews in the consulting industry and how to ace each of them.
Learn about the recruiting cycle and the expectations of candidates, as well as the science and art of networking. You’ll get to grips with how to approach a market sizing question, role play a case interview and understand the common types of frameworks for them. You’ll learn the role of behavioral interview and apply some key principles to common behavioral interview questions.
Presentation Skills
Develop client-ready slides and deliver them in a compelling way.
Much of the first week of the course will be dedicated to learning how to communicate (in written and verbal format). Create a storyline and translate it into a storyboard to explain the difference between a good and bad management consulting slide. Understand the importance of drawing slides on paper first, then building a slide in PowerPoint. You’ll also learn strategies used in the industry today on how to present with impact.
Quick Iteration
Draft a first version of work quickly and improve it through multiple rounds of feedback.
You’ll learn the methodologies of moving through the project definition, scoping, analysis and execution stages. Then, towards the end of the course, you’ll learn the difference between a hazard and a risk and how to create an effective risk mitigation plan. You’ll define next steps over multiple time horizons and at different levels of granularity.
Fact-based Varied Analysis
Identify actionable insights through key quantitative and qualitative techniques.
In the second week of the course, you’ll learn to define what qualitative analysis is, explain some of the common techniques and leverage them. Along with classmates, you’ll identify suitable benchmark companies and comparison facts, select the right visual structure to present the benchmarking exercise and derive insights from it.
Workplanning
Outline the activities, timing and responsibility that are needed per prioritized deliverable and update.
The industry today.
The Management Consulting industry is huge - and growing fast. With the industry globally valued at $892 billion in 2021 and almost $975 billion in 2022, being able to tackle business challenges with the right toolkit is a very marketable skill.
The best thing about Management Consulting is that it’s broadly applicable: learning the methodologies of problem-solving is a huge advantage whether you work for a company or start your own.

"I am a Data Scientist with experience in both academic and commercial settings. I honed my skills in research, data analysis, scientific computing, writing, and presentation during my time as an experimental physicist. These skills provide a solid foundation for branching out into other fields as a Data Scientist."
"I'm a highly skilled senior director with extensive experience in management consulting across various regions, including Portugal, Spain, Angola, South Africa, São Tomé e Príncipe, and East Timor. I'm proficient in enterprise model design, change management, and teaching through ongoing collaborations."
iX is designed to be your first step in a successful career.
"We don’t know where we might end up in the future or what kind of people and problems we will be working with. iX introduced me to this idea and inspired me to seek learning even in areas I may feel are out of my comfort zone."
