Broad Opportunities in “One Pool” system
Thanks to BayCurrent’s “One Pool” system. I have had the opportunity to work with clients in various industries on topics ranging from operations/performance improvement to strategy formulation. The One Pool system facilitates diverse project team building by selecting consultants with different backgrounds and skills across the entire firm. As a result of this, I have had the pleasure to be mentored by talented managers/partners with different areas of expertise – including individuals who have held positions with other consulting firms and in industry.
Supporting Japanese Companies on a Global Scale
As somebody who did not grow up in Japan, working with predominantly Japanese clients provides me the opportunity to learn more deeply about Japanese business culture, a topic I have always been interested in. I also feel that working on engagements with the headquarters of these companies allows me to gain exposure to more critical challenges of the Japanese business world.
Leading Globally Oriented Projects
Currently, I am working on an engagement with a large Japanese conglomerate on their overseas expansion strategy. The team is conducting extensive research on the local manufacturing sector and interviews with executives from different manufacturing industries to determine the target customer for our client’s product. In addition to my motivation to help the client compete globally, I find it incredibly rewarding to connect and learn from these executives.
Looking forward, I aspire to become a management consultant leading globally oriented projects in a managerial role. As such a leader, I would like to possess a combination of core consulting skills, like hypothesis-driven problem solving, and an area of expertise, which I am still developing. For now, however, I am focused on contributing to BayCurrent’s strong track record and assisting the firm’s growth wherever I can.
