Description
What is the aim of this course?One of the projects you will participate in during your work in management consulting is the Performance Improvement Project. You will be hired by the owner or the Board of Directors to improve the business. Those projects are extremely interesting because you will be able to make a real change, create a new reality and improve part of the business or even the whole business. There are also very difficult as you have to not only analyze areas but also find ways to improve the current situation as well as, on some occasions, implement the change. The skills that you will learn during this sort of project will be also very useful once you move to work for regular businesses or set up your own firm. In this course, I will show you how to deliver such projects fast and efficiently. In the course you will learn the following things:How to conduct performance improvement projectsHow to estimate in Excel savings and improvementsWhere to look for performance improvements in FMCG and RetailWhat frameworks can be used during performance improvement projectsThis course is based on my 15 years of experience as a consultant in top consulting firms and as a Board Member responsible for strategy, performance improvement, and turn-arounds in the biggest firms from Retail, FMCG, SMG, B2B, and services sectors that I worked for. I have carried or supervised over 90 different performance improvement projects in different industries that generated in total 2 billion of additional EBITDA. On the basis of what you will find in this course, I have trained in person over 100 consultants, business analysts, and managers who now are Partners in PE and VC funds, Investment Directors and Business Analysts in PE and VC, Operational Directors, COO, CRO, CEO, Directors in Consulting Companies, Board Members, etc. On top of that my courses on Udemy were already taken by more than 124 000 students including people working in EY, Walmart, Booz Allen Hamilton, Adidas, Naspers, Alvarez & Marsal, PwC, Dell, Walgreens, Orange, and many others.I teach through cases, so you will have a lot of lectures showing examples of analyses, tools, and end-products of Performance Improvement Projects. To make the course more realistic and applicable we will go over a simplified overall case for performance improvement as well as through a number of typical analyses from Retail and FMCG. I will also show you the frameworks you should use during Performance Improvement Projects to conduct this sort of projects fast and efficiently. To every lecture, you will find attached (in additional resources) the Excels as well as additional presentations, materials shown in the lecture so as a part of this course you will also get a library of ready-made analyses that can, with certain modification, be applied by you in your work.Why have I decided to create this course?Performance Improvement Projects differ greatly from other consulting projects. You have to not only analyze and come up with bright ideas but you quite often also have to implement them. Many Business Analysts and Management Consultants lack the frameworks as well as the fluency in analyzing the right thing fast to deliver the results the customers expect. This course will help you become an expert in the field of performance improvement which will be extremely useful not only in consulting but also later on when you become director or you move on to build your own business. By giving you exposure to real-life cases and analyses I want to improve your skills in analyzing the right things fast and implementing the improvements that you have identified. Thanks to this course, you will know what and how to do during a Performance Improvement Project to deliver ahead of deadlines high-quality products.To sum it up, the course will help you become an expert in Performance Improvement on the level of McKinsey, BCG, Bain, PwC, Deloitte, EY, and other top consulting firms. That is why, I highly recommend this course not only to Consultants or Business Analysts that have to advise their customers but also to Investment Directors working for PE, Directors as well as owners/founders of businesses that need better to improve their profitability and prepare for scaling.In what way will you benefit from this course?The course is a practical, step by step guide loaded with tones of analyses, tricks, hints that will significantly improve the speed with which you understand, analyze the business considered for acquisition. There is little theory – mainly examples, a lot of tips from my own experience as well as other notable examples worth mentioning. Our intention is that thanks to the course you will learn:How to conduct performance improvement projectsHow to estimate in Excel savings and improvementsWhere to look for performance improvements in FMCG and Retail.What frameworks can be used during performance improvement projectsYou can also ask me any question either through the discussion field or by messaging me directly. How the course is organized?The course is divided into the following sections:Introduction. We begin with a little intro to the course as well as some general info on how the course is organizedHow to conduct Performance Improvement Projects. In the second section, I will show you how such projects should be carried out to ensure that you deliver value to the customer fast and efficientlyA Case Study in Performance Improvement. In this section, you will be asked to solve a case study in performance improvement. I will also show you the solution and the analyses in Excel. This section will give you a flavor of how the Performance Improvement Projects look likePerformance Improvement Projects in Retail. In the 4th section, I show you what kind of frameworks you should use during performance improvement projects in Retail. You will also go through a number of real-life analyses from Performance Improvement Projects in Retail.Performance Improvement Projects in FMCG. In the 5th section, I show you what kind of frameworks you should use during performance improvement projects in FMCG. You will also go through a number of real-life analyses from Performance Improvement Projects in FMCG. You will be able also to download many additional resourcesUseful frameworks and techniquesList of resources useful during performance improvement projectsSelected analyses shown in the courseLinks to additional presentations, articles and movies Links to books worth reading At the end of my course, students will be able to.Conduct a Performance Improvement ProjectsApply the right frameworks and techniques from your management consulting toolbox Find potential improvements in Retail and FMCGAnalyze in Excel potential improvements in Retail, FMCG on the level of McKinsey, BCG, BainManage efficiently a consulting project devoted to performance improvementFind ways to improve the business you manageWho should take this course?
