This is so relatable in the various jobs I’ve had with a job transitioning into new systems or business owners. Being on this side of it makes me feel like I could influence the management side of things. This is cool.
@@bykchoihow many interviews did you go through. I went through multiple rounds and didn’t get the role I was so irritated. I’ve worked in CM for about a decade and looking for a new role.
I’m planning on doing a master in management this coming September. The company i currently work is constantly changing every 6 months and always want the employee input. I always have ideas in my head to make the systems run smoother. It seems so interesting. Thank you for this
I am a change manager/practitioner. I think you did a great job at a high-level change management consultant role - what's the point of companies having role(s) like this. And I agree with the "why" you choosing this role; helping others in this way makes it worth while.
As a current MBA candidate, consulting is the most popular career choice among students like me and videos like yours are very very informative and helpful. Thank you.
thank you for this awesome video! i recently went through interviews in management consulting and implementation, and you just described the most important ideas that i would outline when answering the case interview! wish i had this video before my interviews, and hopefully it helps other students interested in consulting, specifically human capital/tech :)
Thanks, Kristina, for this very helpful overview of change management consulting, including typical types of change, stages of change, and client management.
I'm so happy I found this video! I just graduated from Cal, and I studied English like you. I just got invited to speak with a recruiter about a change management role, and this really helped break down what it is.
Thank you K Choi! The company I am working in struggles to change. When I heard people complaining (including my manager, my boss...), doubting, rumouring around, my little petite head was overwhelmed, not to mention my mood. So I am getting very interested in this topic. K Choi you are becoming my role model haha~ #the power of an amazing influencer#
Well done!, I look at this topic really closely and I find it so refreshing to have someone share their insights and perspectives on change management, I feel like watching another passionate tribe member jajaja, Great Content, this is the second time I've seen your videos, They really give me energy. Keep going you're doing great! I bet your audience will love to know about pricing strategies for strategy consultants, complex stuff when it comes putting a value on change! ;)
Currently getting a bachelors degree in Business Entrepreneurship & Innovation at the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley. This is my favorite channel by far. This is literally exactly what i was born to do. What would you say are some good programs, books, mentors, films etc. you would recommend for someone getting started in change management consulting. Thank you!
I love your content! Can you make content on in depth details like a roadmap or sample program you’re at will to share? I think it’d be super helpful 😄 thank you and go bears!!!
Hi Choi! As native Korean living in NYC over decade, I was very 반가웠어요! to find your channel. I am psychology B.A candidate, looking into go i/o psychology master program... While I was searching I came across "consulting". I have been researching about the industry, and I find your videos really helpful in terms of getting idea of industry. I also really enjoyed with Q&A with Judy as well as Q&A of yours. I was surprised to hear that you don't really need a business major to get your foot into the door! Gives me huge hope! Subscribed. :) Can we also discuss about how to prepare for the internship/full time interview without experience in consulting ? As recent college graduate student or while in the college taking internship. Thank you so much and look forward more videos!
Change management often comes in as a result of a new CEO; it is political, factional, and firings(attempted at least) are involved. The examples you give are more on changing out systems, "rip-and-replace" as it was known. From an IT perspective, transitioning to new systems is really painful for everyone, especially if there are partners up and downstream(manufacturers and retailers) that mandate the use of certain ancient technologies. Hope you get to consult with one of these older companies, and when you do remember to build good relationships with the incumbent staff.
Thanks for making this video. You have explained it in a way that is very clear and easy to understand. A must watch for all who wished to enter this industry :) subcribed!
Well, this video suggested by youtube since I am looking for references that help me start the change management project. What I’d like at first is leader on the same page. This is challenging part. That’s even more challenging when working at government-owned company. Have you involved with government-owned company? I would like to get some insights about how to deal with various leaders thought.
Thank you so much for this video - do you find it challenging sometimes if you weren't involved in the first stage or if you help with the implementation of changes you might not "agree with" or which could have a negative impact on some roles? Does this happen?
How do you design a proposal for a change management project for a client. Is it based on time spent ? Or is it based on results ? On what basis does the client pay?
I'm an undergrad management major who is graduating this spring. Some of my favorite undergrad classes were strategic management and organizational change. I also took a systems design class where we discussed employee resistance to new information systems during deployment. I'm looking into a Master's in HR right now that covers career development, training, change management, etc. Do you think this would be a good way to break into the management consulting industry? Do you think project management certifications are useful as well? Thank you from a new subscriber!
How much you make as a change management consultant? im eraning experience working as a organizational sociologist in that area, and soon im planning in doing it by myself.
Hi kchoi, just found out your video recently! Wondering are there any platforms for a completely newbie to get consulting experience out there? I am law graduate, thinking maybe consulting would be my cup of tea. Cheers!
If this is change management then this I have done all my life Processes . system changes impact on BAU .. Processe for Network operation going from copper to Fiber .. OMG I am change management consultant
Hi Kristina, thanks for your awesome videos! I'm in the midst of applying to masters programs in both the US and UK right now; did you apply to both countries as well? I know you explain about the difference between the programs itself (MiM vs MBA) but could you maybe give some tips about differences in the application process especially the style of personal statements?? (If there are any!)
Hi, i gues you talked about lewin model of change. If i need small help for my assignment how can i ask? Your video is very informative. Thank you. Lots of best wishes.
Hello there. I find your videos very interesting. Can i ask you a couple of questions? 1) where do you live and where do you work. I see you in London in USA o in any other country. But where do you live, and work mostly? 2)what is your job? what do you exactly do? can you be more specific on that? Thank you so much. Take care
Lots of consultants I know (especially in large firms) have ended up leaving consulting after 2-3 years. But I also know people who stay for much longer. Depends on what you want :)
Hey there I am a new subscriber and I love you content. I have few question I think only you could answer them. I graduated from industrial engineering with low GPA and I work now as a change Management analyst in the largest utility company in middle east. So my question is what are my chances to work in big consulting firms like EY,PWC ..ect? How many years should I work in my current job before apllying to the firms? And what should I do to boost my chances to get in them. Ex. Get MBA,PMP?
Hi Kchoi. Thank you for what you do! I found your video very helpful! I have a question: Does change management consulting firms usually hire Ph.D. level candidates with no experience in management as the MBB?
What’s the GPA it took for you to get into the grad school in London? And what was your Masters GPA in English? Do you suggest English is still the way to go since becoming a consultant?
Also when you consult is it just with the company leaders or do you try to ask the people at the bottom how their experience can help create a better flow too? What’s working what’s not at a employee level?
I had a 3.58 GPA for my BA in English (in the U.S.) and I got a Distinction for my Master's in Management (was not a master's in English). Most people study business or economics when they go into consulting but there are also a lot who have degrees in engineering or the humanities. It really all depends! In terms of leaders vs. front line people... at the beginning of the change process, it's usually with leaders. Later on, it's more with front line people. We even do focus group tests with front line people to make sure the messages are resonating with that audience, because they're ultimately the people who have the execute the change!
kchoi that’s really helpful I’m barely getting my associates in English but I with a 3.4 GPA but this gives me an idea of how to get my head in the game, thank you!!
Hi Kristina, I am a Prosci certified change management consultant from Toronto. Really liked your outlook on the CM practice. If you are okay, I would love to have an e-coffee chat with you
Hello Zahida, I am a 17 year old high school student from Germany. I recently became interested in this work field. Could I maybe ask you some questions or come in contact with you for some recommendations? That would be great!
Hello, could you please tell us how would you justify a company hiring change management consultant instead of delegating this to their own senior team?
The senior team probably doesn’t have the bandwidth to take on the change management implementation. Also, they’re experts in their own company/industry, but not on how to effectively engage people in change.
Hi I have the same job but I am specialized in finance. It really depends. I work in Paris and all the big financial companies are already in Paris so I don't need to travel I just move from company to company in the city. But I have colleague who go back and forth to London... So if you work in a BIG city you might be able not to travel if you don't want to but you'll find out in the job offer or during the interview if it is required or not. It also depends on the project you will work on but you always know that before agreeing to a new mission. Then after a few years you can become independent so you'll decide.
hello, thank you for your video, actually, I want be a consultant like you at different field. I ve just got PR in Canada which means it is beginning of Second life to me. so, I really dont know about all the things to be consultant. is there some recommended course or major that I must do? I'm so serious now. if possible I want to chat with you about it but I know you are so busy. I would like to be happy if you leave comment to me thank you.
I only applied to some MBB graduate schemes in London (usually for people coming straight from uni) - not experienced hire positions. I actually focused a lot more on internal/in-house roles in employee engagement
how can i convince my parents that majoring in english is not a waste of time? my dad thinks that i’ll have a hard time finding/sustaining a job and my mom is worried about money/prestige. i have been trying to tell them all of the things i could be but they wont listen. im switching from biomedical sciences to english btw.
I love how the west presents obvious things in such sophisticated vocabulary you immediately think it is so difficult and complicated that it ends up being complicated lol Basically you assist the company in doing things they can’t be bothered wasting their time on when they should be working.
This is so relatable in the various jobs I’ve had with a job transitioning into new systems or business owners. Being on this side of it makes me feel like I could influence the management side of things. This is cool.
I’m so glad!!! Thank you!
Do a video on what the interview was like!
good idea!
kchoi how do you get to people accepting the change or how do we get them onboard to the change
