Published 1 week, 6 days ago
Description
If your case framework doesn't pass the toothbrush test, it's too generic for McKinsey, Bain, and BCG.
Ex-Bain coach Abi Chen walks through the toothbrush test, the 3 mistakes that cost most candidates their offer, and the 4-step process to build strong frameworks.
Finally, she walks through two full framework examples – an M&A case and a pharma product launch.
