And it is something we have never revealed before. This adds to the advanced programs we have on developing new insights, a list that includes The Bill Matassoni Show and Kevin P. Coyne on Competitive Strategy. Together, these three, so far, are the core strategy programs and are highly recommended.

The entire program is 10 episodes. This new format allows us to achieve 4 goals.

1 Taking into account very busy schedules of FC Insiders, we want members to be able to finish the entire program in 21 days.

2 We want members to apply what they learned from the program and start achieving results within 21 days (the recommended time to complete all 10 episodes). You need some results within 21 days to build your momentum and thereafter continue building on that success.

3 We want to focus on one powerful skill in each program so you can quickly notice an improvement if you follow the advice.

4 Each program uses a former executive coaching client as a case study to show you how other clients have implemented these skills.

All programs with the “21 Days” sign follow this format.

You may not know this, but while we have an enormous amount of case interview videos, podcasts and articles, and continue to build that library, the largest part of FC & StrategyTraining.com is the content for consultants, corporate employees, business owners and government employees, guiding them in solving complex assignments to accelerate their careers and develop their organizations.

Our programs are streamed in over 150 countries helping some of the world’s largest organizations along with many elite and many more boutique consulting firms.

The content is exclusively available to Firmsconsulting Insiders.
