Synergise IT

I am currently halfway through this book and I must say that this is extremely insightful for people who are in the consulting industry. Even though I am an IT consultant, I feel that this book is target for any kind of consultant. Its about problem solving skills and the method to go about solving an complicated and complex problem. It studies ex-Mckinsey consultants and survey them on the way a Mckinsey consultant operates.

I have gone through advanced academic research and found alot of the ideas present is very similar however with a business twist to it. For example, academic research is really about getting the stats and the information spot on. However, its written in the Mckinsey Mind that ballpark figures can be accepted. Everything makes alot of sense and it really helped me apply my academic research skills to business research and problem solving.

I do recommend this book to anyone who wishes to advance their business problem solving skills at a high level.
