What Makes Us Different

A new model of consulting that is the first of its kind.

Dedication +Professionalism

We carefully select and train university students, recent graduates, MBA and PhD candidates, and working professionals.

We then assign to these committed volunteers a management consulting project for which they are best suited.

Our pro bono consultants help us find better solutions for our clients by conducting targeted research under our close supervision.

Dedication +Professionalism

Our core team members work directly on every assignment, lay the groundwork for each consulting project, and lead our volunteers by example.

They cooperate closely with clients, bring the professional rigour you would expect, and draw upon their experiences to develop practical business strategies.

We provide our clients with pragmatic, evidence-based advice and always feel a responsibility to foster their success.

01

This model allows us to minimise unnecessary expenses and bring more value to our clients for a fraction of the cost.

02

We have a unique ability to provide organisations of all sizes with quality management consulting services.

03

Our consultants speak plainly rather than using complicated industry jargon. We value honest, clear communication.

04

We undertake projects only if we believe we can deliver real value. If we don’t think we can help you, we will tell you.

05

We create detailed yet concise plans for clients that are easy to put into use immediately. We are results-driven.

06

We are an independent nonprofit and work only for you. Our clients and volunteers have our undivided attention.

Our Volunteers

Many of our pro bono consultants have either studied or worked at some of the most reputable institutions in the world.
