Here's a breakdown of our value proposition:
- Project Management: relevant skills learned from project management, project scoping, and teamwork are extremely valuable to Kellogg students looking to join a consulting firm upon graduation, especially those who may be lacking even after coming from a consulting background. At Lambda Strategy, you will manage a 9-10 week project, be part of a 6-8 person team including two other Kellogg students, and drive your own workstream.
- Undergraduate mentorship: 62% of our surveyed students reported a strong interest in mentoring undergraduates during their time at Kellogg, whereas 70% reported it was not easy to find and maintain a mentoring relationship. Lambda Strategy, being tailored to facilitate mentorship, fills that gap between supply and demand: we will pair you with Northwestern's brightest students that are motivated to learn and grow as individuals.
- Consulting experience: Lambda Strategy opens another door within Kellogg to gain consulting experience, but the differentiator is our client acquisition system. We maintain a pipeline of interesting projects and clients consisting of high-growth, early-stage companies. Our client base comes from investors and VC firms nationwide that are partnered with Lambda.
