Management Consulting Coaches, Events, and Resources

With a robust background in both law and business, I bring a unique perspective to management consulting coaching. I achieved my MBA at London Business School, where I received offers for top-tier consulting. I am passionate about helping aspiring consultants navigate the competitive landscape of management consulting, offering insights into case interviews, resume building, and strategic career planning. Let's connect and chart your path to success in the consulting world!

While at Booth, I was the admissions cochair of the Armed Forces Group and provided many transitioning veterans guidance and insight on how to crack the case interview.

Hi, I’m Annika Friesen, an ICF-certified coach, entrepreneur, and former Bain consultant. I bring a unique perspective as both a post-MBA and industry hire. I began my career at KPMG in audit, gained industry experience, and later joined Bain in an MBA hiring batch after working in education one year post MBA. This means I understand the challenges of both entry paths and can help you navigate whichever journey you’re on. Throughout my career, whether advising clients at Bain or coaching candidates and executives, I’ve been passionate about helping people make bold moves and transform their lives. My mission is to combine insider consulting insights with professional coaching to help you land offers and step confidently into your next chapter. My coaching is holistic and tailored, covering case, fit, and the small nuances that most coaches miss. Together we’ll build on your strengths, close gaps, and prepare you to stand out with confidence and clarity.

I have worked in consulting in various places. I have gotten 2/3 MBB offers, and interviewed at all 3 MBB. I have also worked in smaller boutiques, and have done some independent consulting as well. I have spent over 8 months prepping, and have prepped others who have went to Bain, BCG, McKinsey, Kearney, EY< LEK, Deloitte, and more.

Note: Due to high demand, I do not offer free intro calls. Thank you for understanding. After spending a few years at McKinsey, I entered the leadership development and coaching space. I help leaders with everything from leadership habits to interview prep. I have a Master's degree in Education from Harvard, which allows me to 'teach' people how to think about PEI and cases, rather than just doing the standard role plays with often topical feedback. I truly enjoy the process and have several clients who have gone on to thrive at MBB.

With over 8 years of experience at Kearney, where I advanced from Business Analyst to Manager, I have honed my expertise in market entry, growth strategy, and innovation across various industries including prestige beauty, retail, and technology. I played an active role in recruiting and conducted first and final round interviews - which means I know exactly what the consultancies are looking for. As a Wharton MBA graduate and former member of the admissions committee, I bring a unique perspective to help you craft compelling applications and excel in interviews. Whether you're looking to break into consulting or advance your career, I'm here to provide comprehensive support. Let's connect and strategize your path to success!

I've helped many HBS classmates practice interviews for BCG ('18-'21), and went through interviewing training myself while at BCG ('14-'16), including crafting custom cases in the Australian system.

I am one of the few community college students that have ever received an offer from MBB. Within a year of learning what consulting even is, I interned at ZS Associates, interviewed at 4 different top consulting firms, and received an offer from McKinsey. I spent about 2 years there as a business analyst before pivoting into product marketing, but I still help many students break into consulting. Some of my previous mentees have gone on to work for BCG, Bain, McKinsey, Mercer, Accenture, EY Parthenon... to name a few. My areas of expertise include the consulting bread and butter (casing, resume revision), but I also arm students with the skills they need to craft memorable stories during the behavioral interview.
