S23E16: How AI is Disrupting the Consulting Model | Arda Ecevit, Ex-Bain & NexStrat AI Founder
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Every week we hear the same question from candidates: Is AI going to gut consulting before I can break in?
Short answer: No.
Longer answer: The model is changing fast, and you need to know what's shifting and what isn't.
Arda Ecevit spent over 13 years at Deloitte, Strategy&, and Bain before co-founding NexStrat AI. He sat down with Namaan to talk about what AI is doing to consulting – and the parts of the job it can't touch.
- What AI is taking off the junior consultant's plate
- The skills that still get you hired (and promoted) at MBB
- Why MBB is still worth joining, even with AI doing more junior analyst work
- Where partners and clients still need humans in the room
