Fakultätssitzungssaal, 3rd floor SOWI, 6020 Innsbruck
Academia trains us to think deeply; consulting trains us to deliver quickly. How can we combine the strengths of both worlds? In this fireside chat, Christoph Winter — a former Economics PhD and current strategy consultant — shares key lessons from the consulting world that have reshaped how he approaches project structuring, time and stakeholder management, and the communication of results. Drawing from personal experience, he will explore how applying principles from consulting can enhance research productivity, streamline academic workflows, and increase the impact of your work.
